About our tile repair in Rushmere
The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, 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
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
When to call us in Rushmere
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Common reasons people in Rushmere contact us include:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the room is protected while they work
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Same prices wherever you are
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Work done at your home or business

- Whole walls of failing grout

Landlord and trade work in Rushmere
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common questions in Rushmere
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you come to Rushmere?
We do. Technicians travel to Rushmere from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Rushmere?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?
Everywhere in the UK, Rushmere included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
