Tile repair in Pilton without replacing anything
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 tell you. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Pilton and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Your questions about tile repair in Pilton
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Pilton is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Do you cover Pilton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Pilton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- 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 before booking.
What we work on
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles

Can I fix it myself?
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.
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Pilton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Pilton. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- The material, if you know it
If you’re in Pilton and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
