About our tile repair in Mountcastle
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Common questions in Mountcastle
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Mountcastle is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Mountcastle. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace in Mountcastle?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Mountcastle.

What else we do in Mountcastle
Landlord and trade work in Mountcastle
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mountcastle use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
