Your questions about tile repair in Nupdown
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Tile repair in Nupdown without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Nupdown
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
When to call us in Nupdown
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair 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
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Nupdown. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job without visiting.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
