Tile repair in Garrowhill without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Glasgow. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repair or replace: which is better?

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
