Tile repair in Shirley without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and marble, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Common questions in Shirley
How much does tile repair cost in Shirley?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
- Porcelain tiles
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
