Tile repair in Humshaugh

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Marble

Tile repair in Humshaugh, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We are frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, on marble, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Humshaugh and across Northumberland. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Common questions in Humshaugh

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Do you come to Humshaugh?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Humshaugh from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you need tile repair in Humshaugh?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Repairing versus replacing in Humshaugh

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Humshaugh. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

See our full price list.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Humshaugh. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
