How tile repair works in Torbay

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
We fill the chip, crack or hole.
The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
We match the colour and pattern by hand.
Finally we seal it to match the tile.

What it costs in Torbay

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Torbay use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Repair or replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
Whole walls of failing grout

Torbay: your questions answered

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

We work UK-wide, so Torbay is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
