Tile repair in Waterlane, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Waterlane
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Do you work in Waterlane?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Waterlane. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?

Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Gloucestershire.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Usually, if it isn’t loose.
Do you need tile repair in Waterlane?
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- If travel is included in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repair or replace in Waterlane?
Swapping out a damaged 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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
