Landlord and trade work in Carlecotes
Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

FAQs for Carlecotes
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is a burnt worktop repairable?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What worktop repair costs
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole worktop
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Carlecotes
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Laminate
- Solid wood
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
Quartz
Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep wood oiled
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
