Tile repair in Runwell without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, in porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Runwell
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
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 over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Runwell: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Essex.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, if it isn’t loose.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Runwell. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
