Tile repair in Newbrough, Northumberland

- Repairs from £95
- Chips from dropped pans and tools

Should I try a DIY kit 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, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Tile repair at your home in Newbrough
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. We are frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Newbrough as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Newbrough. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about tile repair in Newbrough

Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Which areas do you work in?

Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Newbrough.
Can you quote from photos?

Is my repair covered?

Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, 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
