Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not knock pans against the edge
- Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
- Keep wood oiled
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.
What else we do in Cauldwell
Cauldwell: your questions answered
What does worktop repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- Discolouration deep in quartz
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repair or replace in Cauldwell?
Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
