How we handle tile repair in Bankend
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Bankend questions
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you come to Bankend?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Bankend and the rest of Dumfries and Galloway. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bankend. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Bankend, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A fixed quote before you book

What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- 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 before you book.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
