How we handle tile repair in Thornton le Moor

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled 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.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure 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.
