Trusted tile repair in Porthyrhyd

Tile repair at your home in Porthyrhyd

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Porthyrhyd as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Porthyrhyd

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Work done at your home or business

See our prices page.

What tile repair costs

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Getting a price from photos

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Your questions about tile repair in Porthyrhyd

How do I book?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Porthyrhyd is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How much does tile repair cost in Porthyrhyd?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 frequently lifts.

Do you need tile repair in Porthyrhyd?

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Porthyrhyd, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
