Landlords, agents and businesses in Cresswell
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cresswell as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Common problems we fix in Cresswell
Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

- Whether a trained technician does the job

- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not cut directly on the worktop
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Don’t leave spills to soak in
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole worktop
- One sharp close-up of the damage
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Questions from Cresswell
Do you come to Cresswell?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cresswell. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can a scorch mark be fixed?
Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
