Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Longford

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Slough and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Do you work in Longford?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Longford and the rest of Slough. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
