How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
About our tile repair in Wester Pencaitland
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We are frequently asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Wester Pencaitland
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in East Lothian and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
