Tile repair in Kelloholm without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Kelloholm and across Dumfries and Galloway. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Common problems we fix in Kelloholm

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kelloholm as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Honest limits

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

Kelloholm questions

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, if it is not loose.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
