What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your WR5 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Tile repair at your home in Whittington
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can usually put it right.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Worcestershire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

FAQs for Whittington
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
