About our tile repair in Walbottle

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Walbottle as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Common questions in Walbottle

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Walbottle. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can price the job.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
