Repairing versus replacing in Thistleton
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Thistleton
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Everything repaired in place

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
