About our tile repair in Guide Post
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. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Guide Post as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Your questions about tile repair in Guide Post
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Guide Post?
We do. Technicians travel to Guide Post from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you cover the whole of Northumberland?
Everywhere in the UK, Guide Post included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Landlord and trade work in Guide Post
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Guide Post as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Guide Post. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Guide Post, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
