Landlords, agents and businesses in Exminster

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How we handle worktop repair in Exminster

Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, matching the colour and pattern by hand. Nothing is taken out. Our technicians work on solid wood, laminate and solid surface (such as Corian), and the jobs we see most are damage to a stone worktop and burns from hot pans.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Questions from Exminster

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Do you need worktop repair in Exminster?

The worst damage often happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

The things clients usually mention when they call include:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Chips near the sink
  • Scorch marks from pans

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

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

What we work on

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

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Keep wood oiled

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Exminster. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
