DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Tile repair at your home in New Oscott

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We are frequently asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, across marble, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Birmingham. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.
