About our tile repair in Allaleigh
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, in ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Allaleigh
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Advice
Your questions about tile repair in Allaleigh
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you come to Allaleigh?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Allaleigh and the rest of Devon. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, if it isn’t loose.
How quickly can you book me in?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
