Tile repair in Winchfawr

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. 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: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

10 questions to ask before booking

How we price tile repair

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Winchfawr. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Any details about the material

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CF48 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Winchfawr questions

Do you come to Winchfawr?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Winchfawr for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How much does tile repair cost in Winchfawr?

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 CF48 postcode.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Winchfawr

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, 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. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
