Tile repair in Swanmore, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. 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.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Common problems we fix in Swanmore
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
People usually call us when they notice one of these:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
Before you book anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to care for the finish
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
