DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
About our tile repair in Burdon
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We’re frequently asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, in marble, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Sunderland. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burdon
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Sunderland and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Burdon questions
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Burdon. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
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 leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
