Tile repair at your home in Darvel
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, across ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Darvel and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95.
