Tile repair in Upper Boat, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
FAQs for Upper Boat
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How much does tile repair cost in Upper Boat?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Upper Boat
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
