Tile repair near Ardfern

Tile repair at your home in Ardfern

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before booking

What affects the price in Ardfern

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Landlord and trade work in Ardfern

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Common questions in Ardfern

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, if it isn’t loose.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you cover Ardfern?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ardfern for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What areas do you cover?

All of Argyll and Bute, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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