Advice
How we handle tile repair in Woodway
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Questions from Woodway
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How much does tile repair cost in Woodway?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Woodway. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Woodway, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Signs you need tile repair in Woodway
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
Questions to ask before you book
- If travel is included in the price
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
