About our tile repair in Abercarn

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and marble.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Abercarn questions

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you cover the whole of Caerphilly?

We work UK-wide, so Abercarn is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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.

Materials we repair

  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Abercarn use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What we’re called out for in Abercarn

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Abercarn

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

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. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Repairing versus replacing in Abercarn

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Abercarn. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
