Tile repair in Lower Caldecote without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Repairing versus replacing in Lower Caldecote
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What affects the price in Lower Caldecote
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can give you a fixed price.

- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Advice
What we’re called out for in Lower Caldecote
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Chips from dropped pans and tools

- Drill holes from removed fittings
What to look for in a quote

- How soon you can use it again
- If travel is included in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
