Tile repair for Toryglen homes

Tile repair in Toryglen, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can help.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles

Common problems we fix in Toryglen

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Your questions about tile repair in Toryglen

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What do you need from me?

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

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.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Toryglen?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Toryglen. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. 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 items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
