Landlords, agents and businesses in Perthy

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

FAQs for Perthy

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A picture lets us check.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How much does worktop repair cost in Perthy?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

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

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Re-oil timber worktops

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

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Do you need worktop repair in Perthy?

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips on edges and corners

Before booking anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
