Tile Repair for Stairfoot homes
We travel to Stairfoot for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

About our tile repair in Stairfoot
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can typically put it right.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Stairfoot. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, 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.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Stairfoot, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Stairfoot questions
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Stairfoot included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you work in Stairfoot?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stairfoot for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
