Tile repair at your home in Whinfield
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can normally put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Whinfield questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Darlington.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently 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. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Marble
- Floor and wall tiles
- Ceramic tiles
