Common questions in Ryther

Is it messy?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Generally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

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

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Ryther. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not need a survey visit. 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.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Quartz
  • Solid wood

Landlord and trade work in Ryther

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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

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 won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace in Ryther?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
