Tile repair for An Luirg homes

Tile repair in An Luirg, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can help.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

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.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to An Luirg. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in An Luirg, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

An Luirg: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you cover An Luirg?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to An Luirg. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What areas do you cover?

All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Landlord and trade work in An Luirg

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around An Luirg, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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.
