Tile repair at your home in Newtown

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Natural stone & granite

  • Floor and wall tiles

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you are in Newtown and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

FAQs for Newtown

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Caerphilly.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How much does tile repair cost in Newtown?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NP11 postcode.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

When to call us in Newtown

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Clients normally contact us about:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
