Tile repair in Scredda without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can help, on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Scredda. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

FAQs for Scredda
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your PL25 postcode.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Scredda included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Normally, if it is not loose.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, 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 recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
