Tile repair in Woodside, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Woodside. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • One visit for most repairs

See our prices page.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Woodside, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
