Tile repair in Higher Town, done in place
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’ll tell you. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, marble and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Isles of Scilly. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Higher Town. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
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 over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in Higher Town
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Higher Town: your questions answered
How do I get a price for tile repair in Higher Town?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TR25 postcode.
Do you work in Higher Town?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Higher Town from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, if it isn’t loose.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Repairing versus replacing in Higher Town

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
