Tile repair in Boscastle, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Boscastle

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Common questions in Boscastle

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Boscastle included. Travel is included in the price.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Repair or replace in Boscastle?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Boscastle. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

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.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PL35 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price
