Tile repair at your home in Southill
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, across natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and marble.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Common problems we fix in Southill
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Southill: your questions answered
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Generally, if it is not loose.
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.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Do you cover Southill?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Southill. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
