Tile repair for Viewhill homes

Tile repair at your home in Viewhill

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, in ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Marble

Common questions in Viewhill

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Highland. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

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

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Will there be a smell?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When to call us in Viewhill

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
