Tile repair at your home in Littlethorpe
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, across porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Littlethorpe. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Your questions about tile repair in Littlethorpe
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are there extra charges for Littlethorpe?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your HG4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
