Tile repair in Southway without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Southway
What areas do you cover?
All of Plymouth, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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 often lifts.
For landlords and businesses
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What else we do in Southway
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
Common problems we fix in Southway
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Southway. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
