Tile repair near Fraddam

Tile repair in Fraddam, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We work on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Fraddam

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Fraddam. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
