How we handle tile repair in Cousland
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cousland as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Cousland
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Cousland get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlord and trade work in Cousland
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Cousland questions
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Are there extra charges for Cousland?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover the whole of Midlothian?
All of Midlothian, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, if it is not loose.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
