When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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 photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair

How we handle tile repair in Ryton
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can generally put it right, on marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
