Tile repair in Yeoford

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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

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

Tile repair in Yeoford, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Yeoford and across Devon. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Yeoford

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Yeoford. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Yeoford get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Yeoford, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
