Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Keeping it looking good

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Dry around the sink and joints

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

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we can’t put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Chicksands. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Questions from Chicksands

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Do you work in Chicksands?

We do. Technicians travel to Chicksands from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

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.
