Tile repair for Poughill homes

Tile repair in Poughill without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We are frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, across porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Poughill and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

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

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, some problems need a different 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repairing versus replacing in Poughill

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Your questions about tile repair in Poughill

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Poughill and the rest of Devon. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What affects the price in Poughill

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Poughill, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
