How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Norlington get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Tile repair in Norlington without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and marble, and common reasons people get in touch are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Norlington as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Norlington
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Questions from Norlington
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are there extra charges for Norlington?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
