How we handle tile repair in St Helen Auckland
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t 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
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Common problems we fix in St Helen Auckland
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.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to St Helen Auckland. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
