About our tile repair in Tow Law
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, across natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there a guarantee?

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 keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tow Law. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
