Tile repair in Tai'r-heol

Tai'r-heol: your questions answered

How much does tile repair cost in Tai'r-heol?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CF46 postcode.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Do you work in Tai'r-heol?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Tai'r-heol from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

About our tile repair in Tai'r-heol

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Tai'r-heol?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. 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’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Floor and wall tiles

What affects the price in Tai'r-heol

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

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.

When to call us in Tai'r-heol

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

What to look for in a quote

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How to look after the finish

Choosing a repair company

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
