Tile repair at your home in Okehampton
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, on porcelain tiles, marble and natural stone & granite alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Okehampton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Repair or replace in Okehampton?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
