FAQs for Kingholm Quay
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Dumfries and Galloway, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Tile repair in Kingholm Quay without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Kingholm Quay, we’ll 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. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Kingholm Quay. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
