Tile repair in Eppleworth

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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 in Eppleworth without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Eppleworth and across East Riding of Yorkshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Prices and what affects them

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When to call us in Eppleworth

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Damaged tile edges

Your questions about tile repair in Eppleworth

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
