About our tile repair in Ponsanooth
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We’re often asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, on porcelain tiles, marble and ceramic tiles.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Any details about the material
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Ponsanooth get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

FAQs for Ponsanooth
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
