Tile repair in Pumpherston

How we handle tile repair in Pumpherston

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on marble, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Pumpherston and across West Lothian. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before booking

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice

Pumpherston: your questions answered

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Pumpherston. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you come to Pumpherston?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Pumpherston and the rest of West Lothian. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pumpherston use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What a repair cannot fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Pumpherston. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit

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 quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
