When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

About our tile repair in Longcroft

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Common questions in Longcroft

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What areas do you cover?

All of Falkirk, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Usually, if it isn’t loose.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Longcroft. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Longcroft, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
