Landlord and trade work in King's Hedges

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in King's Hedges use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

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

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in King's Hedges

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour-matched on site

See our full price list.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean spills immediately
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair
