Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Tile repair in Stirches, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people contact us are damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in the Scottish Borders. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Common problems we fix in Stirches
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools

The process
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.
- 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.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

FAQs for Stirches
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you work in Stirches?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Stirches from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Stirches. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
