Tile repair in The Lymes, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on marble, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What affects the price in The Lymes
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your ST5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
FAQs for The Lymes
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Staffordshire.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
