Tile repair in New Mill without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including New Mill. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

New Mill questions
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you come to New Mill?
We do. Repair technicians travel to New Mill from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens next?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
