Tile repair in Cock Alley

Tile repair at your home in Cock Alley

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help, on marble, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles alike.

In a village like Cock Alley, older homes may have tiled or wooden floors that have been down for years, and matching them is difficult. Repairing the damage keeps the original.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there. Somewhere like Cock Alley needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring everything needed for the tile repair, so there is no second trip.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. For a rural home like those around Cock Alley, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while tile repair is one trip.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
