Tile repair in Slingsby, done in place
The tile stays where it is, 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, marble and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
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 use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Slingsby
Do you cover Slingsby?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Slingsby and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
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.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Slingsby
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Signs you need tile repair in Slingsby
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles

Before booking anyone
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
What a repair cannot fix
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
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your YO62 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Slingsby?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
