Tharston: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Tile repair in Tharston without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Tharston?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Tharston
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Same prices wherever you are
See our prices page.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the tile and remove 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.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
