Landlord and trade work in Idbury
For anyone letting property in or around Idbury, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.
Preparing for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep a parking space free if you can

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Quartz
- Solid wood
- Laminate
Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What affects the price in Idbury
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. 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
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep wood oiled
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
