TILE REPAIR SERVICES
Replace or Repair your Broken and Cracked Tiles in Your Walls or Floors
Tile flooring is a wonderful addition to any bathroom, kitchen, or other workspace. It’s a durable choice, but it’s not immune to the wear and tear of everyday life. Whether it’s the result of dropping your phone (it happens to the best of us) or a flaw in the foundation of your floors, the technicians at HomeSteady can make a damaged tile surface look good as new.
Most Common Causes of Damaged Tiles
There are a few common causes of damaged tiles, such as chips forming when a heavy object is dropped. Additionally, chips can easily become cracks with enough wear and tear, so it’s important to get small blemishes fixed before they become a bigger issue.
Secondly, there can be problems beneath the surface of your tiles that can eventually cause tile damage. For example, the concrete under your tiles that make up your flooring can crack, eventually leading to visible damage. Improperly installed sub-flooring can also lead to tile damage, specifically when the bottom-most layer (otherwise known as “joists”) sustains damage.
Tile Repair Services from HomeSteady
The experts at HomeSteady are equipped to handle any sort of tile repair, no matter the cause of the damage. Depending on the material your tiles are, it is possible to repair them on your own. For instance, laminate and ceramic tiles can be repaired and replaced relatively easily. We recommend using a spare tile for practice (if you have one), since you’ll likely only get one shot at repairing your flooring.
Cork, slate, porcelain, clay, and marble tiles, on the other hand, are best repaired by a professional technician. These materials are delicate and require professional equipment for effective repairs and replacements.
