Questions from Shawhead
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you work in Shawhead?
We do. We send a technician to Shawhead for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Tile repair at your home in Shawhead
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlord and trade work in Shawhead
For anyone letting property in or around Shawhead, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Shawhead. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole tiled area
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When to call us in Shawhead
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
