Tile repair at your home in Rooks Nest
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, across floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Your questions about tile repair in Rooks Nest
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SG1 postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Any details about the material
If you are in Rooks Nest and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
