Tile repair at your home in West Cross
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 say so. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in West Cross as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
If you are in West Cross and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
The process
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in West Cross

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.
