How we handle tile repair in Shadwell
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
