Tile repair in Kelby

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

How we handle tile repair in Kelby

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We are frequently asked to fix damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kelby

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

If you manage property in Kelby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why Kelby customers choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No need to remove anything

10 questions to ask before you book

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
