Tile repair across Dundee: what to expect

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’ll say so. We work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Pricing in Dundee

Our tile repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Honest limits

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

How the damage happens

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Dundee and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repairing versus replacing

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Dundee: your questions answered

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, if it isn’t loose.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What areas do you cover?

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

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What do you need from me?

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