Tile repair in Shittlehope, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Shittlehope
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the whole tiled area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Shittlehope
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair 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. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
