Tile repair in Rossmore, done in place
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 will say so. We’re often asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, in floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Rossmore
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Rossmore. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
If you’re in Rossmore and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Common questions in Rossmore
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Do you come to Rossmore?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Rossmore and the rest of Poole. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Poole.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, if it is not loose.
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite

- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.

- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
