About our tile repair in Rubislaw

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and marble.

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.

Repairing versus replacing in Rubislaw

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Rubislaw

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Rubislaw. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Rubislaw. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
