How we handle tile repair in The City

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and marble, and common reasons people get in touch are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair is not the answer

  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Your questions about tile repair in The City

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

Repairing versus replacing in The City

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for The City. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Same prices wherever you are

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in The City

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Most clients in The City get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

You do not 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.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
