DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Tile repair in Gyllyngvase without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Gyllyngvase
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Cornwall.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Repairing versus replacing in Gyllyngvase
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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.
