About our tile repair in Hylton Red House
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We work on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hylton Red House. What changes the price is:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We 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
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Your questions about tile repair in Hylton Red House
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Sunderland.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
