Tile repair in Great Salkeld without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and marble, and common reasons people get in touch are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Salkeld use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in Great Salkeld
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Great Salkeld get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.
