Akeld: your questions answered
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Northumberland. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you cover Akeld?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Akeld from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Tile repair in Akeld without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

What we’re called out for in Akeld
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Akeld. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There is no need for us to visit first. 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.
What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing 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.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
