Common questions in Cardiff
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Tile repair at your home in Cardiff
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.
Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
