About our tile repair in Porth-y-waen

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on porcelain tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is 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.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Ceramic tiles

Landlords, agents and businesses in Porth-y-waen

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Porth-y-waen use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How it works

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

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SY10 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How to compare quotes

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Porth-y-waen. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Porth-y-waen. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Porth-y-waen

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

How do I book?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
