Landlord and trade work in Whatfield
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
The process
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- We cut back any burnt or loose material.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job.

What affects the price in Whatfield
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures 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
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Your questions about worktop repair in Whatfield
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you work in Whatfield?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Whatfield for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you match granite flecks?
We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Whatfield
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Laminate
