Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Tile repair at your home in Culmers
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We work on marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What else we do in Culmers
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
We price from photos 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.

Questions from Culmers
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you cover Culmers?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Culmers. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you quote from pictures?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What affects the price in Culmers
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- The material, if you know it
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
