Advice
Tile repair in Sparry Bottom, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can usually put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
FAQs for Sparry Bottom
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TR16 postcode.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Sparry Bottom
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
