Tile repair in Coed-y-paen without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in natural stone & granite, marble and floor and wall tiles.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works

- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Your questions about tile repair in Coed-y-paen
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Coed-y-paen

- Marble
- Natural stone & granite

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What affects the price in Coed-y-paen
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Coed-y-paen. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Coed-y-paen, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
