How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
