Tile repair in Little Finborough, done in place
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Little Finborough as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Little Finborough questions
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Do you cover Little Finborough?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Little Finborough and the rest of Suffolk. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
