About our tile repair in Shirley
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 natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
For a place like Shirley, tile repair is usually a few hours.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Shirley
My house in Shirley is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?
Often, yes: original pieces are typically worth keeping. Send us pictures and we’ll tell you what’s possible.
Can you fix tiles in a rental near Millbrook (Hants) station?
Yes. We repair tiles between tenancies for landlords and letting agents, and we can quote for several properties together.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Repair or replace in Shirley?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. In a smaller place like Shirley, getting trades out for a full replacement can take time to arrange. A repair is one visit from us.
Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Colour-matched on site
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- A fixed quote before you book

Local notes for Shirley
Facilities teams at buildings such as Wordsworth Primary School can book us for tiled corridors and washrooms too. If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as Shirley Parish Church, old tiles are hard to match, so repairing a damaged one keeps the original floor.

What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Shirley. The price comes down to:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead. For a home in Shirley, we normally park close by and start straight away.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.

Getting a price
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Shirley, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
