Tile repair at your home in Old Hunstanton
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, across porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would 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

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Old Hunstanton questions
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Old Hunstanton and the rest of Norfolk. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
