Tile repair in Salway Ash without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, across porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Salway Ash as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DT6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Your questions about tile repair in Salway Ash
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Do you cover the whole of Dorset?
All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do you come to Salway Ash?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Salway Ash. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled 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
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
