Landlord and trade work in Chillington

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Chillington as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, 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.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Chillington questions

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just near the damage. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Do you come to Chillington?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Chillington for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Chillington and the rest of Somerset. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Do I have to be there?

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

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it messy?

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

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

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

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

What a repair can’t fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Water-swollen laminate

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back

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