About our tile repair in New Deer

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can normally put it right, on ceramic 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’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from New Deer

How do I get a price for tile repair in New Deer?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Aberdeenshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Repair or replace in New Deer?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for New Deer. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
