Tile repair in Dunecht

Tile repair at your home in Dunecht

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, we can usually put it right, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and marble alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Dunecht

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common problems we fix in Dunecht

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your AB32 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Dunecht

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, if it isn’t loose.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Aberdeenshire.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
