Tile repair in Throckley without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Newcastle upon Tyne. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. 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 normally the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
For anyone letting property in or around Throckley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
What affects the price in Throckley
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
If you’re in Throckley and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
The process
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
