About our tile repair in Widewall
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, in porcelain tiles, marble and ceramic tiles.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Widewall. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Widewall get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Widewall: your questions answered
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you come to Widewall?
We do. We send a technician to Widewall for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Widewall?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure 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.
