Tile repair near Ferniehill

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Tile repair in Ferniehill without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ferniehill

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Edinburgh and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ferniehill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Ferniehill: your questions answered

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Ferniehill and the rest of Edinburgh. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ferniehill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed price.

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Ferniehill?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Why Ferniehill clients choose us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs

Take a look at our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
