How we handle tile repair in Wardhill
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. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and marble.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wardhill use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in the Orkney Islands and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Natural stone & granite
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What affects the price in Wardhill
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
