About our tile repair in Oxgangs
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
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 pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Most clients in Oxgangs get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
