Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is

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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Bowhill: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Bowhill?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Bowhill?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Bowhill.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Repair or replace in Bowhill?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Bowhill

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

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
