Trusted tile repair in St Buryan

Tile repair at your home in St Buryan

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, across floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What affects the price in St Buryan

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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 often lifts.

Repair or replace in St Buryan?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

St Buryan questions

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do you work in St Buryan?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to St Buryan and the rest of Cornwall. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
