Tile repair in West Hill 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 say so. We are often asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across natural stone & granite, marble and floor and wall tiles.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
