Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Tile repair at your home in Carnkie
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.
