Tile repair in Tanfield without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
For anyone letting property in or around Tanfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What we are called out for in Tanfield
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- If travel is included in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
FAQs for Tanfield
Do you work in Tanfield?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Tanfield from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What happens next?
We review the pictures 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.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What affects the price in Tanfield
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
