About our tile repair in Skippers Hill
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts 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.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- A fixed quote before you book
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One visit for most repairs

Common questions in Skippers Hill
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, if it isn’t loose.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Skippers Hill. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
Most customers in Skippers Hill get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
