Tile repair in Swinhill without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Swinhill. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
