About our tile repair in Somerby
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.
We guarantee the work for a year. 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.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
