Tile repair in Newtown

About our tile repair in Newtown

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, in marble, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. 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 pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Newtown. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Do you need tile repair in Newtown?

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Look out for these signs:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges

Questions to ask before you book

  • How to care for the finish
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What happens if they find more damage

Choosing a repair company

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles

Newtown questions

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.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Newtown is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newtown as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
