What affects the price in Scothern

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Scothern. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Send photos for a quote

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Tile repair in Scothern without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

See our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Scothern questions

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
