How we handle tile repair in Newtown
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can normally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Newtown. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job without visiting.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newtown use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Your questions about tile repair in Newtown
Is there a guarantee?

When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Will the price change on the day?

What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
