Tile repair in Mellor, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We’re frequently asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Mellor. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Marble
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Porcelain tiles

Repair or replace in Mellor?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in Mellor

If you manage property in Mellor, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
