What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
Salen: your questions answered
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Salen?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Salen and the rest of Argyll and Bute. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Most clients in Salen get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlord and trade work in Salen
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Salen use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Marble
- Floor and wall tiles
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common problems we fix in Salen
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
Before you book anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if they find more damage
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What prep work is covered
