Tile repair in Bolham without replacing anything

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 tell you. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, across marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bolham and across Devon. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

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 quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Ceramic tiles

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 won’t last.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

Bolham questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Are there extra charges for Bolham?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do you work in Bolham?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Bolham and the rest of Devon. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Why repair rather than 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. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
