Tile repair in Great Ouseburn

Tile repair in Great Ouseburn without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We’re often asked to fix damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, across floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 you book.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repairing versus replacing in Great Ouseburn

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. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the tile and remove 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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How we price tile repair

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

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Great Ouseburn. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your YO26 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
