Tile repair in Sandbank, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, in porcelain tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Our work in Sandbank

Sandbank is about 7 miles west of Greenock, in Argyll and Bute. We visit homes and businesses in Sandbank and nearby villages, so there’s no workshop to go to. Sandbank is one of 118 towns and villages in Argyll and Bute we cover. We work right across the region, from Sandbank to Glasgow (27 miles away).

Here we cover the PA23 postcode area. We regularly work on streets such as Cromlech Road, Shore Road and Pier Road and the roads around them. If you are just outside Sandbank, we cover Kilmun (1 mile north), Strone (1 mile east), Tom nan Ragh (2 miles north-west), Kirn (2 miles south-east) and Hunters Quay (2 miles south-east).

Remote and island addresses take a little more planning, so call us to arrange it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 generally the cheaper route.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

FAQs for Sandbank

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

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

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Are there extra charges for Sandbank?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you need tile repair in Sandbank?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can 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 work on in Sandbank

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your PA23 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

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

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
