Tile repair in Church Town without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Church Town
For anyone letting property in or around Church Town, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add 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.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Church Town questions
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you cover the whole of Cornwall?
The entire UK, including all of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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
- Floor and wall tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
