Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Kelfield. The price comes down to:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job without visiting.

Your questions about worktop repair in Kelfield

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, filled and polished to match.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Advice

When to call us in Kelfield

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage to a stone worktop

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
