DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How we handle tile repair in Thornwood Common
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on ceramic tiles, marble and natural stone & granite alike.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thornwood Common and across Essex. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Thornwood Common
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Thornwood Common. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Thornwood Common. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
