Tile repair near Kilmuir

FAQs for Kilmuir

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Typically, if it isn’t loose.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What areas do you cover?

All of Highland, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Tile repair in Kilmuir, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can help.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

What affects the price in Kilmuir

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kilmuir

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kilmuir as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Kilmuir. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
