About our tile repair in Puddledock
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 will tell you. We work on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Puddledock. What changes the price is:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
