Tile repair in Aboyne, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Aboyne and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

  • Natural stone & granite
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Ceramic tiles

Common problems we fix in Aboyne

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

How to get a price

Most clients in Aboyne get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aboyne use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your AB34 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you cover Aboyne?

We do. Technicians travel to Aboyne from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Normally, if it isn’t loose.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
