Tile repair at your home in Shotton
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Shotton
How do I get a price for tile repair in Shotton?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
How do I book?

Do I have to be there?

Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Most customers in Shotton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing 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
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
