10 questions to ask before booking

How we handle tile repair in Ingliston

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

When we would advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

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

Related advice

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
