About our tile repair in Melling Mount
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
