How we handle tile repair in Scholes
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Fixed prices from your photos

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Scholes questions
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your WN1 postcode.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
