Tile repair for Kinfauns homes

What affects the price in Kinfauns

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size

If you’re in Kinfauns and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Tile repair in Kinfauns without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Common questions in Kinfauns

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is it messy?

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

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What information do you need?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
