How we handle tile repair in Ashfield Cum Thorpe
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Ashfield Cum Thorpe

Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- 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
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
