About our tile repair in Middleton-in-Teesdale

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can normally put it right.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
