Tile repair in Pwll-y-pant

Tile repair at your home in Pwll-y-pant

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice

Your questions about tile repair in Pwll-y-pant

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Landlord and trade work in Pwll-y-pant

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

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.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

10 questions to ask before booking

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

Honest limits

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.
