About our tile repair in Pennance
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Pennance
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Pennance. Prices do not change with location.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Pennance. What changes the price is:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
