- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair

Tile repair in Maindee, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right, on natural stone & granite, marble and floor and wall tiles alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NP19 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Questions from Maindee
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Are there extra charges for Maindee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
