Tile repair in Eccles, Scottish Borders
Our technicians come to Eccles for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
Work for landlords and builders
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 carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in the Scottish Borders and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
About our tile repair in Eccles
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles.
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 Eccles
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What else we do in Eccles
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Marble
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
