For landlords and businesses
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gallows Corner use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Clean spills straight away
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep wood oiled
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 water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

How we price worktop repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire worktop
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Questions from Gallows Corner
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are there extra charges for Gallows Corner?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We protect the rest of the kitchen.
- The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
- We fill it and level it with the worktop.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A top that moves on its units
- Water-swollen laminate
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
