About our tile repair in Retford
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Our repair technicians work on ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What preparation is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Common questions in Retford
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Retford?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DN22 postcode.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
