How we handle tile repair in Burnopfield
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Burnopfield. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- One sharp close-up of the damage
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Porcelain tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble

FAQs for Burnopfield
Do you come to Burnopfield?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Burnopfield and the rest of Gateshead. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Burnopfield?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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 generally cheaper.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should you replace it?
