Tile repair in Pested, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Common questions in Pested
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Pested?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your TN25 postcode.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
