About our tile repair in Stanhope
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Stanhope
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
How much does tile repair cost in Stanhope?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DL13 postcode.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, 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 we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Stanhope. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
