The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Tile repair in Ardeer, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, 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
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ardeer use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Ardeer questions
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How much does tile repair cost in Ardeer?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Repairing versus replacing in Ardeer
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ardeer. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
