How we handle tile repair in Pensby
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.

What else we do in Pensby
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Pensby. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CH61 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.
- 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
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price

Advice
FAQs for Pensby
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Pensby is covered. Prices do not change with location.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Pensby, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Common problems we fix in Pensby
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
Comparing quotes

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
What we cannot put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
- Floor and wall tiles

Repairing versus replacing in Pensby
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
