Tile repair in Newton Ketton without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We’re often asked to fix damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, on marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
