DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Tile repair at your home in Common End
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can generally put it right, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles alike.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.
