Tile repair at your home in Low Ackworth
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We are often asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, across marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Low Ackworth questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover Low Ackworth?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Low Ackworth for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the price in Low Ackworth
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
