Trusted tile repair in Kilmaluag

Tile repair at your home in Kilmaluag

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We’re frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Kilmaluag, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your IV51 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

10 questions to ask before booking

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Kilmaluag: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Kilmaluag?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your IV51 postcode.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, if it is not loose.
