Tile repair for Wheal Rose homes

Tile repair in Wheal Rose without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, in marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before booking

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different 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 will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What affects the price in Wheal Rose

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can give you a fixed quote.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
