Tile repair at your home in Johnstonebridge
We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Johnstonebridge
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
For a price in Johnstonebridge, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Common questions in Johnstonebridge
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Johnstonebridge.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover Johnstonebridge?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Johnstonebridge and the rest of Dumfries and Galloway. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
