Tile repair near Alston Sutton

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Tile repair at your home in Alston Sutton

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

FAQs for Alston Sutton

Do you work in Alston Sutton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Alston Sutton. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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