Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Watch House Green use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Tile repair in Watch House Green without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you’re dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
