About our tile repair in Keyham

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

FAQs for Keyham

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Keyham included. Travel is included in the price.

How much does tile repair cost in Keyham?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

When can you do it?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you cover Keyham?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Keyham. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
