Repairing versus replacing in Upper Holloway
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Tile repair at your home in Upper Holloway
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and marble alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upper Holloway
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole tiled area
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
