For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Yelverton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we handle tile repair in Yelverton

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, on marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Your questions about tile repair in Yelverton

Do you cover the entire of Devon?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Yelverton. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens after I send pictures?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why Yelverton customers choose us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
