Tile repair in Swallowbeck 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 don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across marble, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When to call us in Swallowbeck

- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Damaged tile edges
What your quote should include

- How your room will be protected
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Questions from Swallowbeck

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover the whole of Lincolnshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Swallowbeck included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your LN6 postcode.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, if it isn’t loose.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
