How we handle tile repair in Harrowbarrow

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Harrowbarrow and across Cornwall. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Harrowbarrow

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Harrowbarrow. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

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. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Questions from Harrowbarrow

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

How much does tile repair cost in Harrowbarrow?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you cover Harrowbarrow?

We do. We send a technician to Harrowbarrow for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
