Choosing a repair company

Tile repair in Tudhoe without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in County Durham. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Common questions in Tudhoe

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of County Durham. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Tudhoe?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Tudhoe. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Tudhoe

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Tudhoe

  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What we can’t put right

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
