DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Tile repair in Llwyncelyn without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit

Advice
Llwyncelyn: your questions answered
Do you work in Llwyncelyn?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Llwyncelyn for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How much does tile repair cost in Llwyncelyn?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, if it is not loose.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
