About our tile repair in Marsden
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Marsden questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Marsden. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. 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.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
