Tile repair at your home in South Hetton
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 regularly repair ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What else we do in South Hetton
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your DH6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
When to call us in South Hetton
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges
