Tile repair in Heolgerrig without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We’re often asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Signs you need tile repair in Heolgerrig

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

People typically call us when they notice one of these:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

Choosing a repair company

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Heolgerrig, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Merthyr Tydfil and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What affects the price in Heolgerrig

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode

For a price in Heolgerrig, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll say what we think before you book.

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price
