Tile repair for Pelynt homes

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Tile repair in Pelynt without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on marble, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Pelynt and across Cornwall. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Pelynt

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

What areas do you cover?

All of Cornwall, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

How soon can you come?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pelynt

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pelynt use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
