Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Tile repair at your home in Swanbourne
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We are frequently asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, across natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Swanbourne
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Usually, if it is not loose.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

Advice
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
When to call us in Swanbourne

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damaged tile edges

- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
