When a repair isn’t the answer

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

How we handle tile repair in Ballygown
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most often call us about damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ballygown as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Ballygown: your questions answered
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Argyll and Bute. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Landlord and trade work in Ballygown
For anyone letting property in or around Ballygown, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Do you need tile repair in Ballygown?
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who will actually do the work
- When it can be used again
- If travel is included in the price
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ballygown. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
