How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
How we handle tile repair in Ravenstonedale
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We are frequently asked to fix cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, across ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Ravenstonedale questions
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Usually, if it isn’t loose.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
