10 questions to ask before you book

Tile repair at your home in St Marys

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, across floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in St Marys and across Dundee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Upload a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in St Marys, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Why St Marys clients choose us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

St Marys: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of Dundee?

The whole UK, including all of Dundee. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
