Tile repair at your home in Shirwell
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We are often asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, across floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Shirwell and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Common questions in Shirwell
How do I get a price for tile repair in Shirwell?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your EX31 postcode.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will you leave a mess?

How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Which areas do you work in?

How quickly can you book me in?

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
