Just need a tiny section in my shower patched up. So not looking for anyone that only does huge installations.
 
Have you thought of doing it yourself? Tile's pretty easy to do depending on where it is. If it's on the floor or a flat section of wall, it would be a pretty easy fix and make a decent learning opportunity. However if a corner is involved, you should probably get a professional to make sure it's done right (ie: won't leak).

Check the Greensheets in your area. Lots of smaller companies who stay in business by doing small jobs advertise in them.
 
I did it myself once and it lasted for about 3 months, then it turned out that plaster on the inside did not dry and the whole thing just came apart.

The problem is i dont know what is the right material to use as a backer for the tile to be plastered to. I wanted to use the waterproof Hardy-boad, but dont want to buy a huge 8'x4' piece when just need about 26 quare inches. Plus the HDepot i went to was being a dick and would not cut it down even if i did buy it.

Believe me, i try to do everything myself, but i gave it a shot and now just want it done.
