What affects the price in Blantyre

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Blantyre questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Usually, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Use a chopping board

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Blantyre

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

The process

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlord and trade work in Blantyre

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
