Landlords, agents and businesses in Westleigh

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we’re called out for in Westleigh

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips frequently start there.

Common reasons people in Westleigh contact us include:

  • A chipped edge
  • Gouges in the surface
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • How the colour is matched
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What aftercare is recommended

10 questions to ask before you book

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

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.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Westleigh clients choose us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

What affects the price in Westleigh

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common questions in Westleigh

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your EX16 postcode.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Failed support under the worktop

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

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
