How we handle tile repair in Thornton
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thornton and across Leicestershire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
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.
Thornton questions

Is the work guaranteed?

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Thornton. The price comes down to:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Thornton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

Common problems we fix in Thornton
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Keep an eye out for these signs:

- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Everything repaired in place
- We leave the room as we found it
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
