Trusted tile repair in Princetown

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Tile repair at your home in Princetown

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Princetown and across Devon. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Princetown: your questions answered

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Are there extra charges for Princetown?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A fixed quote before you book

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Princetown, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
