FAQs for Little Compton

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Typically, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Little Compton?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your GL56 postcode.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you come to Little Compton?

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

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Little Compton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What your worktop is made of matters

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Granite and stone

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

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire worktop

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
