How we handle tile repair in Lower Assendon
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, across porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and marble.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What else we do in Lower Assendon
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your RG9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Common questions in Lower Assendon
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Lower Assendon. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
