How we handle tile repair in Marywell

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our technicians work on marble, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Aberdeen. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Marywell

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Marywell: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Do you cover Marywell?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Marywell and the rest of Aberdeen. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Marywell. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

Most customers in Marywell get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we are called out for in Marywell

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marywell

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
