Tile repair near Langside

Tile repair in Langside, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We regularly repair marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Langside and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Langside: your questions answered

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you cover Langside?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Langside and the rest of Glasgow. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your G41 postcode.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

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 generally cheaper.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Langside. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Langside

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

When to call us in Langside

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

The process

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
