Advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlord and trade work in Camlachie
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
If you’re in Camlachie and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
