If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 generally cheaper.

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.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
