DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What affects the price in Lower Titmore Green
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Your questions about tile repair in Lower Titmore Green
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SG4 postcode.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Normally, if it isn’t loose.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Lower Titmore Green
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
