Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

Advice
FAQs for Mill of Mains
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Mill of Mains?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DD4 postcode.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mill of Mains as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
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. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- 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.
