Tile repair near Botternell

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How we handle tile repair in Botternell

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Botternell: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, if it is not loose.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Natural stone & granite

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you are in Botternell and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Signs you need tile repair in Botternell

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Comparing quotes

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What preparation is included
  • How to care for the finish
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
