Tile repair at your home in Scotland Street
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. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, whatever the material.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Advice
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Questions from Scotland Street
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, if it isn’t loose.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Scotland Street?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Essex. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlord and trade work in Scotland Street
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
