Tile repair in Catton, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can normally put it right, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and marble alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Catton. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
