Landlord and trade work in Newbigging

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newbigging as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Newbigging, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

FAQs for Newbigging

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Are there extra charges for Newbigging?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Usually. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Wood

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

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  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. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What we cannot put right

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
