Tile repair at your home in Roby Mill

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles.

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 frequently lifts.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price
