How we handle tile repair in Tadcaster
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We are frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- The material
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use 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.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tadcaster as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Tadcaster, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
How the visit works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- 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.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Tadcaster: your questions answered
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Repairing versus replacing in Tadcaster
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
