Tile repair at your home in Lower Sheering
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lower Sheering and across Hertfordshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Lower Sheering
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Do you work in Lower Sheering?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Lower Sheering and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Lower Sheering, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What else we do in Lower Sheering
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common problems we fix in Lower Sheering
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles

- How to look after the finish
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How soon you can use it again

What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.

Preparing for the visit
