About our tile repair in Vidlin
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

What affects the price in Vidlin
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Vidlin. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
What it costs 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 quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Landlord and trade work in Vidlin
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Shetland Islands and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Questions from Vidlin
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Vidlin is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Are there extra charges for Vidlin?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
How it works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
