A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, whatever the material.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Tarrant Gunville
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How soon you can use it again
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Common questions in Tarrant Gunville
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your DT11 postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Dorset.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
