Tile repair at your home in Sandside

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sandside as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sandside

For anyone letting property in or around Sandside, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

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 you book.

Common problems we fix in Sandside

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

Chips from dropped pans and tools
Cracked floor tiles
Damaged tile edges
Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
