Tile repair in Kirktonhill without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.

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

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Kirktonhill. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your G82 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

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

Advice

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Kirktonhill questions

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

We cover the entire UK, including Kirktonhill and the rest of West Dunbartonshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
