Tile repair in Shap, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and people most often call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Shap as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
