About our tile repair in Castledykes
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We’re frequently asked to fix cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, across porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Castledykes
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

The entire UK, including all of Dumfries and Galloway. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole tiled area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Landlord and trade work in Castledykes
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Castledykes use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
