Tile repair kit buying guide
Updated: 16.10.2026
A chip in a sound floor tile looks like a five-minute job until amazon.co.uk puts epoxy paste, wax bars and unnamed boxes on one search. This tile repair kit buying guide is the check before you pay: which kit type matches a chip, whether the gram line agrees with the bullet, and whether anyone printed a cure time. The twelve listings, from about £7.47 to about £23.99, sit on our [tile repair kits](/hub/flooring/tiles-repair-kit) comparison. The Products Compared editorial team read those pages and the UK sources below on 15 October 2026. We did not run a lab test.

Four kits that share one search term
Most boxes in this set are two-part epoxy pastes. You mix two parts, tint the result, and press it into a chip. Walls and Floors points to that hard fill when a floor chip has to take feet. Bondtech, MendMight and Tufinein are the three listings that also print a wait of about 24 hours. The other pastes leave the clock blank.
Cramer’s sanitary kit and Konig’s heated wax at £243.36 including VAT sit outside this £7 to £24 band. Cramer UK tells you to leave a moving crack alone. BOFRHME, at about £22.99, is eleven wax bars for a light scratch, with no waterproof line.
Six checks on the amazon.co.uk page
Start with the grams. BeoTnp’s bullets say 2×50 g and the weight field says 10 g. Rivvra and Hupeyna show a unit count of 1.0 gram against item weights of 170 g and 220 g. MendMight and Tufinein state a 160 g fill, with parcel weights of 240 g and 290 g. If two numbers disagree, the amount in the tube is unknown until you open the box.
Bondtech says 24 hours or more before sanding. MendMight says 24 hours, then 24 hours or more before water. Tufinein says fully cured after 24 hours. Hupeyna says keep water off until fully cured and prints no hours. HSE guidance, INDG233, treats epoxy skin contact as the hazard.
What a low price does not buy
The entry band is about £7.47 to £9.99. The middle is about £13.59 to £18.99. The top of this set is about £22.99 to £23.99. None of that is a trade tier.
The Generic kit at about £7.47 and BeoTnp at about £7.59 have no star rating. Inpumo has 4.5 from 43 reviews and still prints no setting time. Rank records sales, not when the paste can meet water.
A printed 24-hour cure sits on Bondtech, with 20 short reviews, and on MendMight and Tufinein, with 171 and 185 reviews. Who each listing suits is on our best tile repair kit page.
Claims to leave on the seller
Invisible, odour-free and non-toxic are seller lines. CAP Code rule 3.7 expects an objective claim to be supportable. None of these listings cites a test for an invisible match or for food contact. YiJiAre mentions granite and adds no food-contact statement.
These pastes are chip fillers. BS EN 12004 classes such as C2, and grout classes such as CG2, belong on adhesive and grout packs. A hollow tile is a different failure, covered on our repair or replace a cracked tile page.
Pay only when the page agrees with itself
If the grams clash, treat the fill as unknown until the box is open. If no hour is printed, you cannot plan the next shower from that listing. A stated 160 g fill and a 24-hour line separate the middle of this set from a £7 page with an empty rating.
Common questions
Is a tile repair kit the same as tile adhesive?
A tile repair kit fills a chip in a tile that is already stuck. Tile adhesive beds a new tile. BS EN 12004 classes such as C2 describe adhesives, and CG2 describes grout. None of the twelve listings prints those classes, so they stay chip pastes. If the tile has to come out, the paste in a repair kit is the wrong material for the bed under a replacement tile.
Do I need tints if my tile is not white?
You need tints when the tile is cream, grey, beige or mottled, because a neat white paste sits lighter than the glaze. Four or five colour pastes can shift the base. They will not copy a printed pattern. In the first 50 MendMight reviews, beige and off-white are hard to hit. Mix a dot on a card and let it cure first.
Why does the weight on the page not match the bullet points?
Marketplace pages often carry two quantity fields that were not written as one sentence. BeoTnp’s bullets say 2×50 g and the weight field says 10 g. Rivvra and Hupeyna show a unit count of 1.0 gram against item weights of 170 g and 220 g. MendMight and Tufinein state 160 g as the fill. When the numbers clash, the amount in the tube is unknown until the box is in your hand.
Is a five-star kit with 20 reviews better than a 4.4 from 185?
A 5.0 from 20 reviews is a smaller record than a 4.4 from 185. Bondtech has the first line, dated 21 September 2026, mostly short praise. Tufinein has the second, including notes that a first layer can sink. Stars on their own do not print a cure time.
Wax sticks or epoxy for a floor chip?
A floor chip that people walk on wants a hard epoxy fill. That is the distinction Walls and Floors draws. BOFRHME’s wax bars are for light scratches, at about £22.99, with 2.5 from 2 ratings and no waterproof line. Konig’s heated wax kit is a trade product at £243.36 including VAT. Keep wax for a dry scratch.
