Tile repair in Dores without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. If you are dealing with damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can typically put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Common questions in Dores
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Do you work in Dores?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Dores and the rest of Highland. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
