Tile repair in Yelden without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bedford Borough. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Yelden questions
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Bedford Borough. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your MK44 postcode.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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.
Materials we work on in Yelden

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
