Tile repair near Carndu

Tile repair in Carndu without replacing anything

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 say so. We’re often asked to fix damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, across natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Carndu as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Where we work around Carndu

Carndu is in Highland. Our technicians come to customers in Carndu and the surrounding area, so there is no workshop to go to. Carndu is one of 253 towns and villages in Highland we cover.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Marble
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Porcelain tiles

What we’re called out for in Carndu

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Carndu

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Carndu. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IV40 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Carndu

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. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Common questions in Carndu

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.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Often, yes, if it is not loose.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
