Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What affects the price in Stoke

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

How to compare quotes

Questions from Stoke

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Usually. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

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