Landlord and trade work in Saltash
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What your worktop is made of matters
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
FAQs for Saltash
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you match the pattern on my worktop?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

When to call us in Saltash
Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Scorch marks from pans
- Chipped corners
- Scratches and knife marks
- Damage from fitting or building work
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How soon you can use it again
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
If you’re in Saltash and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- We fill and shape the damaged area.
- The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Also in Saltash
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Dry around the sink and joints
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Re-oil timber worktops
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
