Vaynor questions
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Tile repair in Vaynor without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Merthyr Tydfil. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Do you need tile repair in Vaynor?
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Vaynor. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
