What affects the price in Red Hills
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Red Hills. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Tile repair in Red Hills, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
