Tile repair in Hawthorn without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can generally put it right.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hawthorn and across County Durham. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What else we do in Hawthorn
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repairing versus replacing in Hawthorn
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

- Honest advice, even when it means no job
