How to compare quotes

Tile repair in Paul, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Paul

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Every job is a little different, 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.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

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. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Paul customers choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Everything repaired in place

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
