Tile repair in Thornfalcon, done in place
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Thornfalcon and across Somerset. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t 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’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Marble
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Most clients in Thornfalcon get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
For landlords and businesses
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.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

FAQs for Thornfalcon
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
