Tile repair at your home in Milthorpe
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, across floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles.
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 affects the price in Milthorpe
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Milthorpe
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For anyone letting property in or around Milthorpe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Milthorpe: your questions answered
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How much does tile repair cost in Milthorpe?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
