Tile repair in Old Philpstoun

Tile repair at your home in Old Philpstoun

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Old Philpstoun

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Old Philpstoun and the rest of West Lothian. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will 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.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Old Philpstoun, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Old Philpstoun

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
