What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How we handle tile repair in Whitwood

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Whitwood. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Whitwood. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

How to compare quotes

Your questions about tile repair in Whitwood

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How soon can you come?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Landlord and trade work in Whitwood

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Wakefield and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
