How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Tile repair in Newcastle, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Newcastle?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Landlord and trade work in Newcastle

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newcastle use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Newcastle. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed quote.

Questions from Newcastle

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Newcastle

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