Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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.

Avoch questions

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A picture lets us check.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you come to Avoch?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Avoch. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your IV9 postcode.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

When to call us in Avoch

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives cut, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • A chipped edge
  • Scratches and knife marks

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Avoch

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Avoch. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Upload photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Avoch, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Avoch

  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Laminate
  • Quartz

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
