How we handle tile repair in Ilminster
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Can I fix it myself?
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 normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Ilminster: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you cover the whole of Somerset?
We cover the whole UK, including Ilminster and the rest of Somerset. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Common problems we fix in Ilminster
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Cracked floor tiles

How the visit works

- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
