Tile repair in Restalrig, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Restalrig

How the visit works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 typically cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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.
