Tile Repair in Gartmore
We travel to Gartmore for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Open a window if you can

Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Do I have to be there?

What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gartmore. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
