Tile repair in Hindpool without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We’re often asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Your questions about tile repair in Hindpool
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
How much does tile repair cost in Hindpool?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
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.
What areas do you cover?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
What a repair cannot fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
