Tile Repair for Markinch homes
Problem with your tiled area in Markinch? We repair it in place, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Repairs from £95
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Markinch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Tile repair in Markinch without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Markinch
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you work in Markinch?
We do. We send a technician to Markinch for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

The process
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your KY7 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
