Tile repair in Sherbourne Street, done in place
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 will say so. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Sherbourne Street and across Suffolk. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CO10 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Sherbourne Street questions
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Sherbourne Street and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Marble
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
Landlord and trade work in Sherbourne Street
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
