Tile Repair in Pinxton
Chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles at your home in Pinxton, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Tile repair at your home in Pinxton
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Pinxton as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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 the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The material
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
If you are in Pinxton and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Porcelain tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
FAQs for Pinxton
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Pinxton. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
