Tile repair in Sowton without replacing anything
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’ll tell you. We work on ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people contact us are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Sowton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A fixed quote before booking

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
