FAQs for Ornsby Hill
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you work in Ornsby Hill?

How do I get a price for tile repair in Ornsby Hill?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How we handle tile repair in Ornsby Hill
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t 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 photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ornsby Hill. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace in Ornsby Hill?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
