About our tile repair in Rhyd-y-fro

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We’re frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, in marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Rhyd-y-fro

For anyone letting property in or around Rhyd-y-fro, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What affects the price in Rhyd-y-fro

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.

FAQs for Rhyd-y-fro

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Rhyd-y-fro?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SA8 postcode.

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
