Our hiring checklist

Tile repair in Cleadon without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We’re frequently asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and marble.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Sunderland. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place

See our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Cleadon. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

Landlord and trade work in Cleadon

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, 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 a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Cleadon

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
