Tile repair in Marlingford, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Marlingford questions
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What areas do you cover?
All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How it works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can

Repairing versus replacing in Marlingford
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Marlingford. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
