The process
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What affects the price in Wheathampstead
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole tiled area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles

Repair or replace: which is better?

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

There may be a mild smell during the work.
How quickly can you book me in?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
