Work for landlords and builders

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

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dolphin Town as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Dolphin Town

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Dolphin Town?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to care for the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Use a chopping board

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Your questions about worktop repair in Dolphin Town

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you come to Dolphin Town?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Dolphin Town from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TR24 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
