- Drill holes from removed fittings

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we handle tile repair in Scalloway
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can typically put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- What it’s made of, if you know

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
