How we handle tile repair in Pollokshaws

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We are frequently asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, across natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pollokshaws

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your G41 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Pollokshaws

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

When can you do it?

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

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Pollokshaws

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
