Tile repair at your home in Upper Tean
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can help, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and marble alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Upper Tean questions
Do you cover the whole of Staffordshire?
The entire UK, including all of Staffordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
How much does tile repair cost in Upper Tean?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your ST10 postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
