Repairing versus replacing in High Friarside
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

High Friarside questions
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, normally with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including High Friarside and the rest of Gateshead. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you work in High Friarside?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to High Friarside for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
