Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

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

Keeping it looking good

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Clean spills immediately

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

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

Materials we work on in Upper Killay

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

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

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

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Common problems we fix in Upper Killay

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks often begin.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Chipped corners
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What aftercare is recommended

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Upper Killay. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Your questions about worktop repair in Upper Killay

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Upper Killay included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Generally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
