Tile repair in St Agnes

About our tile repair in St Agnes

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’ll say so. We’re often asked to fix damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, across floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for St Agnes. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in St Agnes

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles

What your quote should include

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from St Agnes

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across the Isles of Scilly.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
