Tile repair for Walkhampton homes

Tile repair in Walkhampton, done in place

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 tell you. We work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Walkhampton: your questions answered

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PL20 postcode.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Typically, if it is not loose.

What happens after I send photos?

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

Do you cover the whole of Devon?

Everywhere in the UK, Walkhampton included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Walkhampton

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walkhampton use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage

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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

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

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

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, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
