Tile repair at your home in Escrick

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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.

What a repair cannot fix

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Escrick

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

People normally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Before you book anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Our hiring checklist

Escrick: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Do you work in Escrick?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Escrick. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your YO19 postcode.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Escrick and the rest of York. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How it works

  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.
