Tile Repair for Dufton homes
Tile repair in and around Dufton: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges
How we handle tile repair in Dufton
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dufton
For anyone letting property in or around Dufton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Signs you need tile repair in Dufton
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
- How soon you can use it again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
When a repair is not the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair

- Marble

What affects the price in Dufton
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
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.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
