About our tile repair in Spittal
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We regularly repair marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your G73 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Spittal
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover the whole of South Lanarkshire?
We work UK-wide, so Spittal is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.
Do you need tile repair in Spittal?
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.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Cracked floor tiles

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Where you are, by postcode
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
