Tile repair near Ashcombe

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Tile repair at your home in Ashcombe

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Ashcombe

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour-matched on site

Common questions in Ashcombe

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you cover Ashcombe?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Ashcombe and the rest of Devon. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

When to call us in Ashcombe

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

Comparing quotes

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
