About our tile repair in Longburton
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you are dealing with damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, we can typically put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Longburton questions
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How much does tile repair cost in Longburton?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your DT9 postcode.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Longburton
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
