Tile repair in The Pound without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. If you are dealing with cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can generally put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for The Pound. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Questions from The Pound
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
What affects the price in The Pound
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
If you are in The Pound and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
