About our tile repair in Bridge of Dee
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’ll tell you. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles alike.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dumfries and Galloway. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Bridge of Dee: your questions answered
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, if it is not loose.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Related advice
Do you need tile repair in Bridge of Dee?

- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Damaged tile edges

- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a 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. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What affects the price in Bridge of Dee
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
