About our tile repair in Milton Abbot
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Milton Abbot
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Are there extra charges for Milton Abbot?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
