Blackwood questions
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

About our tile repair in Blackwood
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
When to call us in Blackwood
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Cracked floor tiles
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who will actually do the work
- How long it needs to cure
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Blackwood. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we do, step by step
Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
