Advice
How we handle tile repair in Crossmichael
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, across natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
