Tile repair in Melbourne, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can help, on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What we’re called out for in Melbourne
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
What affects the price in Melbourne
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Melbourne, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Questions from Melbourne
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you cover Melbourne?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Melbourne for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Melbourne?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Repairing versus replacing in Melbourne
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
See our prices page.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
