Tile repair in Ballater, done in place
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Ballater and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Ballater?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How it works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Ballater. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Ballater questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
