Tile repair at your home in Plaistow
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Plaistow
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Plaistow. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DE4 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

What else we do in Plaistow
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For anyone letting property in or around Plaistow, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair 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.
