Tile repair in Shawlands without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, in natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and marble.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Shawlands. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Shawlands. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
If you’re in Shawlands and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Shawlands questions
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
When to call us in Shawlands
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- How changes to the job are handled
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble

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 leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
