About our tile repair in Whiteleas
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can generally put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Whiteleas
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Sunderland. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How much does tile repair cost in Whiteleas?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you cover Whiteleas?
We do. Technicians travel to Whiteleas from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
Do you need tile repair in Whiteleas?
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
The things customers usually mention when they call are:
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How soon you can use it again
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price

Landlords, agents and businesses in Whiteleas
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Whiteleas use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Whiteleas. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
