Tile repair in Smithies, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, on marble, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
