Tile Repair in Craigend
We travel to Craigend for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Damaged tile edges
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
How we handle tile repair in Craigend
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Craigend questions
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work in Craigend?
We do. We send a technician to Craigend for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Repair or replace in Craigend?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
