Tile repair at your home in Higher Batson

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, across floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Higher Batson

How much does tile repair cost in Higher Batson?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TQ8 postcode.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

When can you do it?

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What we are called out for in Higher Batson

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges

What to look for in a quote

  • What prep work is covered
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Repair or replace in Higher Batson?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Higher Batson. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why Higher Batson clients choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Marble

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
