Tile repair in Craigton

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Tile repair in Craigton, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Craigton

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Craigton. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Craigton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we’re called out for in Craigton

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

Craigton questions

Is there any odour?

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
