How we handle tile repair in Douglastown

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Angus and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Douglastown questions

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What we are called out for in Douglastown

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles

Before booking anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

How to get a price
