Tile repair in Burscott without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on marble, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Burscott. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Burscott. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Questions from Burscott
Which areas do you work in?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Burscott
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burscott use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
