Tile repair for Witton-le-Wear homes

Tile repair in Witton-le-Wear without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Witton-le-Wear. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
