About our tile repair in Tinker Hey
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Tinker Hey
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, 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.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Repairing versus replacing in Tinker Hey
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tinker Hey. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 will say what we think.
What we work on
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
