If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

How we handle tile repair in Oaker
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Oaker: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, if it is not loose.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Landlord and trade work in Oaker
For anyone letting property in or around Oaker, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Derbyshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace in Oaker?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Oaker. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
