Tile repair in Ravelston without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on porcelain tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, 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.

Questions from Ravelston
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you cover Ravelston?
We do. Technicians travel to Ravelston from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, 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
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Ravelston, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ravelston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Everything repaired in place
