Tile repair in St. Ebbes without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and people most often call us about damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What else we do in St. Ebbes
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
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’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole tiled area
Most customers in St. Ebbes get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlords, agents and businesses in St. Ebbes
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St. Ebbes use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Questions from St. Ebbes
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in St. Ebbes.
Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?
We work UK-wide, so St. Ebbes is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 often lifts.
Do you need tile repair in St. Ebbes?
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
