Landlord and trade work in Underwood

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Underwood as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Underwood. The price comes down to:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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 quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep wood oiled

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Choosing a repair company

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Advice

Your questions about worktop repair in Underwood

Are you accredited?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Typically. A photo lets us check what’s possible.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

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

Wood

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