Tile repair for Kinghorn homes

Tile repair in Kinghorn without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Kinghorn

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A fixed quote before booking

See our prices page.

The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Kinghorn

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common questions in Kinghorn

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Kinghorn and the rest of Fife. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I need to be at home?

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

How much does tile repair cost in Kinghorn?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your KY3 postcode.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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