What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

Unusual colours or finishes
The type of damage
Where the damage is and how we get to it
Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

One picture of the whole tiled area
Any details about the material
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Tile repair in Melksham, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, on floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Common questions in Melksham

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
