Landlord and trade work in Swerford

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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

About our worktop repair in Swerford

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We’re often asked to fix burns from hot pans and damage to a stone worktop, on solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and granite & marble.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price 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 price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole worktop

Most clients in Swerford get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Your questions about worktop repair in Swerford

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you work in Swerford?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Swerford. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How much does worktop repair cost in Swerford?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Swerford and the rest of Oxfordshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll offer you dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 photos.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.
