Tile repair in Thorpe Langton

Tile repair in Thorpe Langton, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair marble, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Natural stone & granite
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Marble

What we are called out for in Thorpe Langton

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

Questions to ask before booking

  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it 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 start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
