How we handle tile repair in St Tudy

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We’re frequently asked to fix cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and marble.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cornwall. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Questions from St Tudy

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

What happens after I send photos?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for St Tudy. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
