How we handle tile repair in Dalmarnock

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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

Choosing a repair company

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your G40 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

We will always be straight with you, 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled 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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Dalmarnock: your questions answered

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.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Glasgow.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
