How we handle tile repair in Hamsterley
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We are often asked to fix damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Do you need tile repair in Hamsterley?
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hamsterley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When a repair isn’t 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

Hamsterley: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across County Durham.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
