How we handle tile repair in St James South Elmham
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We are often asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, across porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What affects the price in St James South Elmham
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for St James South Elmham. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in St James South Elmham get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
