Worktop repair for Lover homes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lover

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Lover. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Lover. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lover, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

FAQs for Lover

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Often, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Will there be a smell?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repair or replace in Lover?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
