Tile repair in Throop without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Do you need tile repair in Throop?
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damaged tile edges
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long it needs to cure
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who turns up on the day

Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
