Advice
About our tile repair in Shillington
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Shillington
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Shillington and the rest of Hertfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 photos.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- 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’ll say what we think.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match 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’s no premium for Shillington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
