Tile repair in Dewlish, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can generally put it right, on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What else we do in Dewlish
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
