About our tile repair in Lower Falkenham
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’ll say so. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Lower Falkenham?

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lower Falkenham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Lower Falkenham. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
FAQs for Lower Falkenham
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
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.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
