Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Voe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

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

About our worktop repair in Voe

The hard part of a worktop repair is matching the pattern. We build up the colour and flecks by hand so the repair blends in. We’re often asked to fix chips on edges and corners and chips caused during installation, in solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and quartz.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Should you replace it?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Voe questions

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Generally. A photo lets us check.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Clean spills straight away

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What affects the price in Voe

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
