Common questions in Fettercairn

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

What a repair cannot fix

  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
