Tile repair in Perkinsville without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it 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. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Perkinsville and across County Durham. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
