Tile repair in Margam, 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 don’t need to find a spare. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can usually put it right, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Margam and across Neath Port Talbot. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Margam
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Common questions in Margam
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do you need tile repair in Margam?
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
What your quote should include
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Who will actually do the work

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
