About our tile repair in St John
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can generally put it right, on porcelain tiles, marble and natural stone & granite alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
