About our tile repair in Ruscote
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can generally put it right, on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Ruscote and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Ruscote. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
Most customers in Ruscote get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Ruscote questions
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Are there extra charges for Ruscote?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OX16 postcode.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
