Tile repair at your home in Netherton

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Netherton questions

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Netherton is covered. Prices do not change with location.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Northumberland.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For anyone letting property in or around Netherton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

10 questions to ask before you book

Repairing versus replacing in Netherton

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Netherton. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NE65 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
