About our tile repair in Walthamstow Village
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Walthamstow Village: your questions answered
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Walthamstow Village, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
Advice
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
