Tile repair in Shieldfield without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Shieldfield and across Newcastle upon Tyne. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
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.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Porcelain tiles
- Natural stone & granite

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
FAQs for Shieldfield
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
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 I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Shieldfield for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
