Tile repair at your home in West Rainton
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We are frequently asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, on floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Sunderland. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Sunderland and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
For anyone letting property in or around West Rainton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Repairing versus replacing in West Rainton
