Tile repair in Uddingston, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

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. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Uddingston

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How to care for the finish

How to compare quotes

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 leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Questions from Uddingston

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of South Lanarkshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Is it messy?

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

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

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your G71 postcode.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
