How we handle tile repair in Shacklewell
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and common reasons people contact us are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Common questions in Shacklewell
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Do you cover the entire of Greater London?
We work UK-wide, so Shacklewell is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Shacklewell?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
