Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How we handle tile repair in Thrigby
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thrigby and across Norfolk. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price

Your questions about tile repair in Thrigby
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Norfolk, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
