About our tile repair in Soothill
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can generally put it right, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Soothill and across Kirklees. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Soothill?

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Soothill
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Soothill, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
For landlords and businesses
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.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the tile and remove 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.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
