Tile repair in Wakes Colne, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can typically put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

FAQs for Wakes Colne
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you work in Wakes Colne?
We do. We send a technician to Wakes Colne for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

What else we do in Wakes Colne
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

See our pricing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most customers in Wakes Colne get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
