Tile repair at your home in Thorney Island
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can typically put it right, on floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
Thorney Island questions
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover Thorney Island?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Thorney Island. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can I add another job to the visit?

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Thorney Island
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in West Sussex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Thorney Island, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 before booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
