Repairing versus replacing in Whenby
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

About our tile repair in Whenby
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Whenby
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you charge for travel?

Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Whenby?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whenby as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
