About our tile repair in Swanage
We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Swanage questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Dorset.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Swanage?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Do you come to Swanage?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Swanage and the rest of Dorset. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
When can you do it?

Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
