How we handle tile repair in Old Shotton
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Our repair technicians work on porcelain tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired 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 often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
