Kilmarnock questions

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you cover Kilmarnock?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Kilmarnock. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Normally, if it isn’t loose.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Tile repair in Kilmarnock, done in place

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’ll tell you. Our repair technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Kilmarnock

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of

A few things move the price: 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.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Kilmarnock

Swapping out a damaged 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. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Kilmarnock. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Kilmarnock, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kilmarnock use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
