Àird questions
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Àird and the rest of Highland. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Tile repair at your home in Àird
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Àird. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Àird
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
