Tile repair in Shalford without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Shalford
Is my repair covered?

How do I get a price for tile repair in Shalford?

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you come to Shalford?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Shalford from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will you leave a mess?

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
