About our tile repair in Pentyrch

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cardiff. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Pentyrch

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Pentyrch. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pentyrch as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Common questions in Pentyrch

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do you cover the entire of Cardiff?

The entire UK, including all of Cardiff. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Often, yes, if it is not loose.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CF15 postcode.

Common problems we fix in Pentyrch

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges

Before booking anyone

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
