About our tile repair in Ceann Loch Gilb
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Marble
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ceann Loch Gilb as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Ceann Loch Gilb. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your PA31 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
