Landlord and trade work in Holywell
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Holywell use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Your questions about tile repair in Holywell
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What affects the price in Holywell
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Holywell. The price reflects:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
