Trusted tile repair in Carnwath

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Tile repair in Carnwath, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, we can normally put it right, on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

FAQs for Carnwath

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you work in Carnwath?

We do. We send a technician to Carnwath for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your ML11 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
