How we handle tile repair in Colyton

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, across floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Colyton

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Colyton

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

People normally call us when they notice something like this:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

Before booking anyone

  • When it can be used again
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
