DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we handle tile repair in Carstairs
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Carstairs
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Carstairs?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across South Lanarkshire.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
