Tile Repair for Swanpool homes
Our repair technicians come to Swanpool for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Swanpool as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Tile repair at your home in Swanpool
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Your questions about tile repair in Swanpool
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What areas do you cover?
All of Lincolnshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
