About our tile repair in Woodthorpe

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, on porcelain tiles, marble and ceramic tiles.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in York. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Woodthorpe, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repairing versus replacing in Woodthorpe

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.
