Tile repair at your home in South Stifford
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
South Stifford: your questions answered
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Common problems we fix in South Stifford
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Damaged tile edges
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
Before you book anyone
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to South Stifford. The price depends on:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
