Questions from Glenrothes
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Tile repair in Glenrothes, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.
When to call us in Glenrothes
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

What else we do in Glenrothes
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Glenrothes. The price comes down to:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Glenrothes. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your KY7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlord and trade work in Glenrothes

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
