Tile repair in Fraddon, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, in ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Fraddon?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Fraddon. The price reflects:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Fraddon, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
