Tile repair in Hillhead, done in place
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hillhead
If you manage property in Hillhead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your KA6 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Hillhead: your questions answered
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
