Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How we handle tile repair in Thornton-le-Moors
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on marble, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Thornton-le-Moors. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
