Tile Repair for Chawleigh homes
Our technicians come to Chawleigh for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Tile repair at your home in Chawleigh
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Chawleigh
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Chawleigh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
