Book tile repair in Dalmeny

What affects the price in Dalmeny

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Dalmeny. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How we handle tile repair in Dalmeny

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, on ceramic tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Dalmeny and across Edinburgh. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Dalmeny

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Same prices wherever you are
