Tile repair for Merrymeet homes

How we handle tile repair in Merrymeet

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Merrymeet. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job without visiting.

Common problems we fix in Merrymeet

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

How to compare quotes

FAQs for Merrymeet

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Repairing versus replacing in Merrymeet

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
