Tile repair at your home in Southburgh
The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, across floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- 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
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
