Tile repair in Chirnside

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we handle tile repair in Chirnside

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, across floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Scottish Borders. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Chirnside

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Chirnside. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Chirnside: your questions answered

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Often, yes, if it is not loose.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Common problems we fix in Chirnside

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.

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

Honest limits

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
