Common questions in Marston Moretaine
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Marston Moretaine included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Tile repair in Marston Moretaine, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, in marble, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
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.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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 don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Marston Moretaine
