Tile repair in Reed, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can help.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Reed
Do you cover Reed?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Reed. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Repairing versus replacing in Reed
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Reed
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
