Questions from Sorbie
Do you come to Sorbie?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Sorbie from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Normally, if it is not loose.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are there extra charges for Sorbie?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Sorbie
For anyone letting property in or around Sorbie, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95.
