How we handle tile repair in Lower Holbrook
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. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IP9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
