Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Outwood. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Repairing versus replacing in Outwood

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Dry around the sink and joints

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 chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Outwood questions

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do you work in Outwood?

We do. Technicians travel to Outwood from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

When to call us in Outwood

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

Common reasons people in Outwood contact us include:

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Knife marks
