Tile repair in Drewsteignton, done in place
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We’re frequently asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Questions from Drewsteignton
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What we cannot put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
