Tile repair at your home in Lower Heyford
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Lower Heyford
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Details of any past repairs
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your OX25 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
