About our tile repair in Clyst Heath
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, across floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Clyst Heath, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clyst Heath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Signs you need tile repair in Clyst Heath
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Common reasons people in Clyst Heath contact us are:

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Clyst Heath
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Clyst Heath get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
