Tile Repair in Butetown
Our technicians come to Butetown for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 pictures.
Tile repair at your home in Butetown
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Butetown?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95.

FAQs for Butetown
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover Butetown?

Do I need to be at home?
