Tile repair at your home in Pityme
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Pityme
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Pityme: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PL27 postcode.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Repair or replace in Pityme?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
