How we handle tile repair in Aberlour

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Aberlour. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back

If you are in Aberlour and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
