About our tile repair in Plymtree
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Plymtree 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.

What affects the price in Plymtree
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Plymtree. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Most customers in Plymtree get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Landlord and trade work in Plymtree
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plymtree use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles

Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
