Tile repair for Merthyr Dyfan homes

The process

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

Tile repair in Merthyr Dyfan without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, on ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles alike.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Merthyr Dyfan

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can price the job.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our full price list.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Merthyr Dyfan use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

When we would advise against a repair

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 before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Marble
