Tile repair at your home in Spittal
We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, across porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northumberland. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we cannot put right

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Common questions in Spittal
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you cover Spittal?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Spittal and the rest of Northumberland. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are there extra charges for Spittal?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
