Tile repair at your home in Doctor Lane Head
The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.
