Tile repair in Primrose, South Tyneside
Local tile repair for Primrose: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Tile repair in Primrose without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Primrose and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

When a repair isn’t the answer

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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common questions in Primrose
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you come to Primrose?
We do. We send a technician to Primrose for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
