Tile Repair in Bali

Tile repair in Bali — hollow tiles, cracked tiles, failed grout. We find the cause first, then fix it so it lasts.

What We Do

A repaired tile that fails again in six months isn't a repair. We find out why the tile failed — hollow base from poor adhesive coverage, substrate movement, wrong adhesive, no waterproofing — before replacing it. Otherwise the new tile has the same problem.

How We Do It — Step by Step

1. Diagnosis first

A repaired tile that fails again in six months isn't a repair. We start by finding out why the tile failed — hollow base from poor adhesive coverage, substrate movement, the wrong adhesive, or missing waterproofing. Replacing the tile without fixing the cause just resets the same clock.

2. Removal without collateral damage

We lift the failed tiles cleanly, protecting the surrounding sound tiles, and clear out the old adhesive bed back to a solid base. Rushing this step is how a single-tile repair turns into a much bigger one.

3. Re-bedding correctly

The replacement goes back with full adhesive coverage and, where the original failed for waterproofing or movement reasons, we address that too — re-membrane the wet area or add a movement joint — before setting the tile.

4. Regrouting and sealing

For failed or stained grout we rake out and re-grout, and silicone the corners that should never have been rigid-grouted. On stone we re-seal so the repaired area matches and resists future staining.

Common Problems We Fix

Common Bali tile failures we repair: hollow floor tiles that sound drummy and crack underfoot, cracked tiles from substrate movement, bathroom tiles lifting from absent waterproofing, and blown or mouldy grout. In every case we identify which it is before quoting, because the fix is different for each.

Most repair calls in Bali could have been avoided with correct prep the first time. Since we can't change how the original job was done, we focus on diagnosing the real cause and fixing it properly — so the repair is the last time you have to think about that tile.

Why do my tiles sound hollow?
A hollow, drummy sound means poor adhesive coverage under the tile. It will eventually crack or pop. We lift the affected tiles and re-bed with full coverage so it doesn't recur.
Can you match my existing tiles?
We do our best to source a match, and where an exact match isn't available we discuss the best blend or a sensible feature solution. Bring a spare tile or a clear photo if you have one.
My grout is cracking in the corners — why?
Internal corners flex and need flexible silicone, not rigid grout. Rigid grout there always cracks. We rake it out and re-seal the corners correctly.
Do you fix leaking bathrooms?
Yes — we trace the leak, usually to failed waterproofing, then strip back the wet area, re-membrane and re-tile so it stays dry. See our bathroom tiling service.
