What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Dunoon, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
About our tile repair in Dunoon
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 say so. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Dunoon questions
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Dunoon?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Why repair rather than replace?

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not 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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
