Tile repair for Middlehaven homes

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Middlehaven

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

Tile repair at your home in Middlehaven

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

About Middlehaven

Middlehaven is about 2 miles north of Grove Hill, in Middlesbrough. From the centre of Middlehaven to the outlying streets, the service is the same: a fixed quote, a tidy visit and a guarantee. Middlehaven is one of 33 towns and villages in Middlesbrough where we work. Our jobs stretch from Middlehaven to Newcastle upon Tyne (32 miles away).

Our visits in TS1, TS2 and TS3 are booked in the same way as anywhere else. That includes homes on Depot Road, Snowdon Road and Dundas Mews and the roads around them.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Middlesbrough and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Middlehaven use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

When to call us in Middlehaven

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Middlehaven questions

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
