What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Newburn. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
How we handle tile repair in Newburn
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Newburn
What happens next?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How much does tile repair cost in Newburn?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your NE15 postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
