How we handle tile repair in Swannington
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 will say so. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles

Common questions in Swannington
How do I get a price for tile repair in Swannington?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Swannington
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
