Tile repair in Treknow

Tile repair in Treknow without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Treknow and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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.

When to call us in Treknow

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Before you book anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Marble
  • Natural stone & granite

Landlords, agents and businesses in Treknow

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cornwall and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Common questions in Treknow

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Treknow?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What happens next?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Treknow

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Treknow. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Treknow, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price
