Tile repair in Leswalt without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Common questions in Leswalt
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
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.
Do you come to Leswalt?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Leswalt and the rest of Dumfries and Galloway. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are there extra charges for Leswalt?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Leswalt as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
