Tile repair for Radnor homes

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Tile repair at your home in Radnor

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace in Radnor?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
