A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Nethertown questions
What happens next?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
