Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Worktop repair in Talachddu without replacing anything

We repair chips, burns and scratches in laminate, stone, quartz, solid surface and wooden worktops, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place. If you’re dealing with scratches and knife marks and damage around the sink cut-out, we can usually put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Wood

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

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Failed support under the worktop

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves 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 we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

FAQs for Talachddu

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can usually still use the rest of the kitchen.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Typically. A photo lets us check.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I have to be there?

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

How to care for the repair

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Clean spills right away
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What affects the price in Talachddu

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
