Tile Repair for Lydd homes
Local tile repair for Lydd: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
Tile repair in Lydd without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can generally put it right, on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
