Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hallthwaites questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Are there extra charges for Hallthwaites?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you come to Hallthwaites?

We do. We send a technician to Hallthwaites for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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 we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

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