About our tile repair in Houghton St Giles

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, marble and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Houghton St Giles and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

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.

Repairing versus replacing in Houghton St Giles

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NR22 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
