Tile Resetting
Durable as slate tiles are, they can shift and separate due to normal wear over time. We can replace any tiles that have become loose with a durable epoxy bond.
Tile Repair
With a hard enough impact, slate can chip or crack like any other natural stone. We use a strong epoxy that can repair the damage and match the original color of your slate tiles.
