About our tile repair in Higher Bal

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Higher Bal

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Is it messy?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Higher Bal.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you work in Higher Bal?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Higher Bal and the rest of Cornwall. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not 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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

What affects the price in Higher Bal

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace in Higher Bal?

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

Our hiring checklist

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
