Tile repair in Ffynnon-ddrain, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We’re frequently asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
