Tile repair in Keekle, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We are often asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, across marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing 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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Common questions in Keekle

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

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.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Ceramic tiles
