Tile Repair across York

How tile repair works in York

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, in natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in York as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common problems we fix in York

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Cracked floor tiles

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

York: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens after I send pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
