Tile repair near Craigour

Landlords, agents and businesses in Craigour

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Tile repair in Craigour, done in place

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 will tell you. We work on natural stone & granite, marble and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people contact us are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Edinburgh. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Signs you need tile repair in Craigour

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

People normally call us after spotting one of these:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Craigour

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your EH17 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Craigour

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Craigour customers choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • One visit for most repairs

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, 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, then guarantee it for a year.
