Tile repair in Tealby Thorpe without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, we can typically put it right.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Signs you need tile repair in Tealby Thorpe

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

  • Damaged tile edges

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. 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.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Tealby Thorpe. The price comes down to:

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your LN8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
