- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the entire tiled area

- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Pillowell, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Tile repair at your home in Pillowell
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pillowell
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
