What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Telegraph. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
How we handle tile repair in Telegraph
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 will say so. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Isles of Scilly. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Telegraph
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Telegraph and the surrounding area
Telegraph is about 36 miles west of Penzance, in the Isles of Scilly. We work in every kind of home, from flats and terraces to detached houses and new builds, as well as offices, shops and holiday lets. We work in all 13 towns and villages in the Isles of Scilly.
Our visits in TR21 work the same way as everywhere else we cover. Jobs here include addresses on Town Lane, Decca Lane and Pungies Lane and the roads around them. Neighbouring places we cover include Trenoweth (1 mile north-east), Porthloo (1 mile south-west), Maypole (1 mile east), Pelistry (1 mile east) and Holy Vale (1 mile south-east). Some remote addresses need extra planning, so it’s best to call first.
Landmarks near Telegraph
Our customers here include homes close to St Mary's Church, among other places. Well-known places in the area include Longstone Heritage Centre (0.6 miles south) and St Mary's Hospital (1.1 miles south). The countryside around Telegraph includes Mount Todden and Abbey Pool.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
What we’re called out for in Telegraph
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
