Tile repair in Thorpe Astley without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Thorpe Astley
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, if it isn’t loose.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlord and trade work in Thorpe Astley
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
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.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
