Tile and Sanitaryware Repair
Ceramics are naturally difficult to repair. Their dense structure provides little grip to synthetic resins and glues, and they come in a near infinite range of exotic colours and finishes.
Riverbend can repair chips and cracks in complex printed ceramics and solid colour tiles, I also provide resin injection services for hollow tiles and tiles with poor subfloor adhesion.
Sanitaryware repair is a cornerstone service for a hard surface repair tradesman. I perform spot repairs to chips in porcelain sanitaryware. I have developed repair methods using the best primers and mastics to ensure long lasting adhesion in the harsh moisture and temperature environments the repairs must endure, leaning on chemistry from the dental industry and proprietary applications to assist with mixing shades of white.
Chips, scratches, and structural cracks can all be repaired, saving on replacements and avoiding calling back the plumbers and tilers.
Tile Repair
This ceramic tile was damaged when installing the timber flooring next to it, resulting in a chip and a crack through the middle.
The tile was first stabilised with an injection resin, then the crack was widened on the top surface with a diamond engraver, before being primed and filled.
The filler was pigmented a base colour, and the detailed texture was hand painted on top for a perfect repair.
