About our tile repair in Burnhope
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Burnhope and across County Durham. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Burnhope
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Burnhope, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What a repair cannot fix
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
