How we handle tile repair in Powerstock
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We are frequently asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, across natural stone & granite, marble and floor and wall tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Powerstock. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Powerstock. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Your questions about tile repair in Powerstock
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When we’d advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, 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

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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 often lifts.
