Tile repair in Dundee without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Drill holes from removed fittings

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Tile repair in Dundee without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dundee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, 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
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How do I get a price for tile repair in Dundee?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

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. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
