Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cove use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Questions from Cove

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. Send us a photo and we will tell you what’s possible.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Do you cover Cove?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cove. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Should you replace it?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Cove clients choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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 typically cheaper.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
