Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Tile repair at your home in Low Etherley
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Low Etherley as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure 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 difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
What affects the price in Low Etherley
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Details of any past repairs
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Low Etherley
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Common problems we fix in Low Etherley
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
- Damaged tile edges
