How we handle tile repair in Shilbottle
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can usually put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shilbottle as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most customers in Shilbottle get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?
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. Our tile repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common questions in Shilbottle
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
