Honest limits

  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles

How we handle tile repair in Gwennap

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 will tell you. If you are dealing with cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can normally put it right, on marble, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Gwennap. What changes the price is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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 reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why us?

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are

Gwennap: your questions answered

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you cover Gwennap?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Gwennap and the rest of Cornwall. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Gwennap and the rest of Cornwall. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
