About our tile repair in Llandovery

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Llandovery questions

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Carmarthenshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What we can’t put right

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 will say what we think.

What we work on

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Llandovery. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SA20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
