Tile repair in Waunarlwydd

Tile repair at your home in Waunarlwydd

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can typically put it right.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Waunarlwydd and across Swansea. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Waunarlwydd questions

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Often, yes, if it is not loose.

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.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Repair or replace in Waunarlwydd?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Choosing a repair company

Landlords, agents and businesses in Waunarlwydd

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. 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 kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
