Need tile repair in Millerhill?

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Millerhill

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

How we handle tile repair in Millerhill

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When to call us in Millerhill

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

Questions to ask before you book

Your questions about tile repair in Millerhill

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Midlothian. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

When can you do it?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you charge for travel?

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

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes 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. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  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

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Millerhill

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Millerhill, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
