Need tile repair in School Aycliffe?

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including School Aycliffe. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

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

Tile repair in School Aycliffe, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We are frequently asked to fix damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across marble, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in School Aycliffe as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

School Aycliffe: your questions answered

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, if it is not loose.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DL5 postcode.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • A fixed quote before you book

Read our full price list.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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 generally cheaper.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. 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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
