End of tenancy surface repair is one of the most requested services we provide — and one of the smartest investments you can make at the end of a tenancy. End of tenancy is one of the most common times we’re called in — and one of the best times to call us. A professional surface repair before or after check-out can save both landlords and tenants hundreds of pounds in deposit disputes and replacement costs.
For Tenants: Repair Before You Leave
If you’ve accidentally damaged a worktop, floor, bath or tile during your tenancy, having it professionally repaired before check-out is almost always cheaper than having the cost deducted from your deposit and replaced by the landlord.
Typical repairs tenants arrange before leaving:
- Worktop chips or burn marks (from pots, pans or cigarettes)
- Scratch or impact damage to kitchen doors
- Chips in baths, basins or shower trays
- Scratched or chipped floor panels
- Furniture marks and water rings
A professional repair typically costs £100–£350. A landlord’s replacement quote for the same item is often £800–£3,000+.
For Landlords: Restore Between Tenancies
Rather than replacing damaged items between lets, surface repair restores them to a near-original condition at a fraction of the replacement cost. We can turn around most repairs within 48 hours of booking.
What We Repair
All hard surfaces: stone and laminate worktops, hardwood and laminate floors, acrylic and GRP baths and shower trays, ceramic tiles and sanitaryware, kitchen furniture and doors.
