Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Take a look at our pricing.
What affects the price in Old St Mellons
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What happens on the day

- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
When to call us in Old St Mellons
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Damaged tile edges
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How changes to the job are handled
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How soon you can use it again
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
