How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Swinden. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
Swinden: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Swinden included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Swinden
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
