Tile repair near Wanlip

Tile repair at your home in Wanlip

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Leicestershire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Wanlip questions

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, if it is not loose.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Do you work in Wanlip?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Wanlip for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wanlip. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our pricing.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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