Tile repair for Leathley homes

Tile repair in Leathley, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 generally cheaper.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Leathley

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before you book

See our pricing.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Leathley

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • Access to the area

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Leathley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material

Most clients in Leathley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we are called out for in Leathley

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Cracked floor tiles

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Leathley: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you work in Leathley?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Leathley and the rest of Leeds. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Leeds.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
