Tile repair at your home in North Street
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in North Street
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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 quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Marble
