Tile repair in Northway, 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. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Northway
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Northway questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Northway, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What’s near Northway
Locally, our jobs take us to homes close to Tewkesbury Academy, Church of St Nicholas and Carrant Brook Junior School. The nearest railway station is Ashchurch for Tewkesbury station, roughly 0.5 miles south-east of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Tewkesbury Heritage & Visitor Centre (2 miles south-west).

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
