Our hiring checklist

How we handle tile repair in Willington

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We’re often asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

Willington questions

When can you do it?

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Will the price change on the day?

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.

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

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NE28 postcode.

When a repair is not the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Willington

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
