Tile repair in Milber, done in place
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, in floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and marble.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What else we do in Milber
Can I fix it myself?
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace in Milber?

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Milber. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
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.
