Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Shevington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
If you’re in Shevington and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix 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 to keep costs down.
When to call us in Shevington
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Look out for these signs:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Shevington: your questions answered
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
