How we handle tile repair in Tongue
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Tongue questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Highland.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, if it is not loose.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do you come to Tongue?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Tongue and the rest of Highland. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
How the visit works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. 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.
Why us?
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Everything repaired in place
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- A fixed quote before booking
