How we handle tile repair in Merridale

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, we can generally put it right, on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles alike.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Merridale

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do you work in Merridale?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Merridale. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we can’t put right

In fairness, 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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Do you need tile repair in Merridale?

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who will actually do the work

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
