Tile repair near Cadle

Tile repair at your home in Cadle

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and marble.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Your questions about tile repair in Cadle

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Do you come to Cadle?

We do. We send a technician to Cadle for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
