How we handle tile repair in Spring Cottage
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, across porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
