How we handle tile repair in Monreith
We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Monreith
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Questions from Monreith
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you come to Monreith?
We do. We send a technician to Monreith for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
