About our tile repair in Crofton
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

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

Common questions in Crofton
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, if it is not loose.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Wakefield.

How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Crofton. What changes the price is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Crofton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote

- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Crofton
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wakefield and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Repair or replace in Crofton?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
