Repairing versus replacing in Torbryan
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Advice
Torbryan: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you cover the entire of Devon?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are there extra charges for Torbryan?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
