Tile repair for Alves homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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

How we handle tile repair in Alves

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Alves and across Moray. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about tile repair in Alves

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How much does tile repair cost in Alves?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your IV30 postcode.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What affects the price in Alves

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
