Tile repair at your home in Lanehead
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you are dealing with cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Lanehead. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Any details about the material
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Your questions about tile repair in Lanehead
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Do you need tile repair in Lanehead?
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
- Damaged tile edges

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lanehead
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One visit for most repairs
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Nothing taken out or refitted
