Tile repair in Y Waun, done in place
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, in marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Flintshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We price from photos so you don’t 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 will get a fixed figure back.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
