About our tile repair in Hartlepool
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

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.

Repair or replace in Hartlepool?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.

Questions from Hartlepool
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, if it is not loose.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
