The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, we can help, on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles alike.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Kingsknowe and across Edinburgh. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Kingsknowe. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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 will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Porcelain tiles
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for 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’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
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. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- No extra charge for your area
- Most jobs done in one visit
Read our pricing.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common questions in Kingsknowe
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
