Tile Repair across Wakefield

Our tile repair service in Wakefield

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy.

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

What you will pay

Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wakefield

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Wakefield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

What affects the price in Wakefield

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

How the damage happens

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

The things customers normally mention when they call are:

  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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

Common questions in Wakefield

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Are there extra charges for Wakefield?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

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