Our hiring checklist

How we handle tile repair in Dornie

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Dornie

Do you work in Dornie?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Dornie and the rest of Highland. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Are there extra charges for Dornie?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

What information do you need?

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

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Take a look at our pricing.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price tile repair

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

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Dornie, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

  • Natural stone & granite

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
