Tile repair at your home in Orby
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We are often asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, in porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Orby
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, so Orby is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, 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. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Orby
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Orby as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
