Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
