Tile repair at your home in Osmington
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Osmington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
