What affects the price in New Aberdour

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

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in New Aberdour, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

How quickly can you book me in?

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
