Landlord and trade work in Southill

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Repairs by material

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Southill. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, 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. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Do you need worktop repair in Southill?

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips often start there.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • A chipped edge
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • Damage from fitting or building work

Before booking anyone

  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Southill: your questions answered

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. A picture lets us check.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
