About our tile repair in Belfast

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We’re often asked to fix cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

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

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Most customers in Belfast get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Belfast: your questions answered

What areas do you cover?

All of Belfast, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you need tile repair in Belfast?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

Before you book anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good.
