Tile repair in Cove without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on marble, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cove. What changes the price is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common questions in Cove
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX16 postcode.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
When to call us in Cove
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
The things customers generally mention when they call are:
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
