Tile repair at your home in Thorington Street
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace 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 use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Thorington Street
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thorington Street. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Thorington Street. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For a price in Thorington Street, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
