Tile repair in Muirhouse

What affects the price in Muirhouse

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Muirhouse. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

How we handle tile repair in Muirhouse

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help, on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Muirhouse, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

When to call us in Muirhouse

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Before booking anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
