Tile repair in Combe, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Colour-matched on site
- Work done at your home or business

Common questions in Combe
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
