About our tile repair in Ynysowen

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles.

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.

Our hiring checklist

Your questions about tile repair in Ynysowen

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Merthyr Tydfil, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Ynysowen?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Ynysowen. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

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

Getting a price from photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

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.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
