Tile repair in Syston without replacing anything
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. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Questions from Syston
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you come to Syston?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Syston and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
