Edgehead questions
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you cover Edgehead?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Edgehead and the rest of Midlothian. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Edgehead.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
About our tile repair in Edgehead
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If you are dealing with cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can usually put it right, on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and marble alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- 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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Repairing versus replacing in Edgehead
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Landlord and trade work in Edgehead
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Edgehead use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
