Tile repair in Hetton-le-Hole, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We’re often asked to fix damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair cannot fix

- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- 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.

Related advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hetton-le-Hole. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole tiled area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hetton-le-Hole use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
