Tile repair in Stow Hill, done in place
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’ll say so. We work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Newport. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stow Hill use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Marble
- Floor and wall tiles
Common questions in Stow Hill
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do you work in Stow Hill?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Stow Hill. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How much does tile repair cost in Stow Hill?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
