How we handle tile repair in Wallaceton
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What affects the price in Wallaceton
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Wallaceton. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can price the job without visiting.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing 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.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repairing versus replacing in Wallaceton
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
