Tile repair at your home in Lower Bodinnar

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Lower Bodinnar: your questions answered

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

Everywhere in the UK, Lower Bodinnar included. There is no extra charge for travel.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
