Tile repair near Postwick

Tile repair in Postwick, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Related advice

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Norfolk and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Postwick questions

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repairing versus replacing in Postwick

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. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
