Questions from Gartcosh

Are there extra charges for Gartcosh?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Tile repair in Gartcosh, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, in marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gartcosh. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most customers in Gartcosh get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gartcosh

If you manage property in Gartcosh, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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.
