DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Minishant: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Do you work in Minishant?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Minishant. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Minishant, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
