Book tile repair in East Devon

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 doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Tile repair at your home in East Devon

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’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, in floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

East Devon: your questions answered

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What we are called out for in East Devon

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Most people contact us after spotting one of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why East Devon customers choose us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Landlord and trade work in East Devon

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
