Trusted tile repair in New Lanark

Tile repair in New Lanark without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, in floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Your questions about tile repair in New Lanark

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How much does tile repair cost in New Lanark?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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 generally the cheaper route.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What tile repair costs

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
