Tile repair in White Roding, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, in floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
