Landlords, agents and businesses in Llancarfan

For anyone letting property in or around Llancarfan, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units

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

Materials we work on in Llancarfan

  • Laminate
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble

What affects the price in Llancarfan

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Llancarfan. What changes the price is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Signs you need worktop repair in Llancarfan

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips often start there.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • A damaged sink edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan

What to look for in a quote

  • How your room will be protected
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Llancarfan questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How much do I need to move?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
