About our tile repair in Rankinston

We repair the tile in place, 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. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can typically put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Rankinston: your questions answered

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Do you come to Rankinston?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Rankinston. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Rankinston?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

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

Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Rankinston included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Rankinston and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Common problems we fix in Rankinston

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.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

Before booking anyone

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How to care for the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
