FAQs for Yarcombe
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you work in Yarcombe?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Yarcombe. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Yarcombe?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX14 postcode.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How we handle tile repair in Yarcombe
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Yarcombe as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Yarcombe
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Yarcombe as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Devon and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

Why repair rather than replace?

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What a repair can’t fix

- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What affects the price in Yarcombe
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Yarcombe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For a price in Yarcombe, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
