Tile repair in Croft-on-Tees

Tile repair in Croft-on-Tees, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Croft-on-Tees

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you cover the whole of Darlington?

The entire UK, including all of Darlington. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

What affects the price in Croft-on-Tees

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Croft-on-Tees. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Croft-on-Tees. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
