Waun-gron: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Waun-gron and the rest of Swansea. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Tile repair in Waun-gron without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, across natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waun-gron use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Common problems we fix in Waun-gron
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Waun-gron

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, photos 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.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Ask for a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
