About our tile repair in Drybridge
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. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Drybridge and across North Ayrshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Drybridge: your questions answered
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across North Ayrshire.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your KA11 postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do you cover the whole of North Ayrshire?
Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Repairing versus replacing in Drybridge
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Drybridge. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Drybridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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 usually the cheaper route.
What affects the price in Drybridge
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Drybridge. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
