Landlords, agents and businesses in Tillington

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tillington use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

When we’d advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage.

  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. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tillington. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Tillington: your questions answered

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Common problems we fix in Tillington

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips near the sink
  • Knife marks

What to look for in a quote

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed 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 fails, we can still put it right.
