About our tile repair in Biggar
We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Do you need tile repair in Biggar?
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
- Damaged tile edges
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- What prep work is covered
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 work on in Biggar

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, 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. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Common questions in Biggar
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work in Biggar?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Biggar from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Normally, if it is not loose.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
