About our tile repair in Meadfoot
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Meadfoot as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Meadfoot: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Meadfoot
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.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Signs you need tile repair in Meadfoot
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
Before booking anyone
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. 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.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted

What else we do in Meadfoot
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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 pictures, as it can add time.
