Need tile repair in Wheal Kitty?

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Tile repair in Wheal Kitty without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We’re often asked to fix cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Should you replace it?

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What affects the price in Wheal Kitty

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Quotes from your photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Your questions about tile repair in Wheal Kitty

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are there extra charges for Wheal Kitty?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
