Tile repair near Eryholme

Tile repair in Eryholme, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Eryholme questions

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Do you cover Eryholme?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Eryholme from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price. There’s no obligation to book.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

What we are called out for in Eryholme

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Cracked floor tiles

Comparing quotes

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

If you manage property in Eryholme, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Eryholme

  • Natural stone & granite
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Ceramic tiles

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Everything repaired in place

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
