Tile repair at your home in Kilmelford

The tile stays where it is, 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 are dealing with cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Kilmelford

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover the whole of Argyll and Bute?

The whole UK, including all of Argyll and Bute. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover Kilmelford?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Kilmelford. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

How we price tile repair

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

Where the damage is and how we get to it
Unusual colours or finishes
Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
How many items we do on one visit

We do not 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

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

A close-up of the damage, in focus
Your postcode, so we can check dates
Natural light rather than flash
A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

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. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
