Landlords, agents and businesses in Racks
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What your worktop is made of matters
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean spills straight away
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Oil wooden tops regularly
- Never put hot pans down directly
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Racks. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Racks, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Failed support under the worktop
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
