Comparison: WTS' solutions vs replacement

Countertop

  • Savings: Repairing countertops is significantly cheaper and faster than replacing them.
  • Disruption: Avoids the need for heavy lifting and machinery, which can be disruptive and time-consuming. No need to dismantle and reinstall large countertop sections.

Hardwood floor

  • Savings: Repairing specific sections is much more cost-effective than replacing entire floors.
  • Disruption: Avoids noisy, dusty work and the need to remove all items from the room. Replacing one piece of hardwood can be challenging due to color matching and integration issues.

Built-in cabinets

  • Savings: Touch-ups are far cheaper than replacing entire cabinets.
  • Disruption: Minimal compared to the extensive work of removing and installing cabinets. Finding the original vendor can be hard, and even if found, exact color matches are often impossible. Replacement parts from Europe can take months to arrive, and you might need to replace every single kitchen cabinet to ensure color consistency.

High-end appliances

  • Savings: Repairing cosmetic damages saves the cost of replacing expensive appliances.
  • Disruption: Avoids the hassle of removing and installing new appliances, which often requires a handyman, electrician, or plumber. Repairs eliminate the need for additional professional services.

Entry door

  • Savings: Repairs are more economical than door replacements.
  • Disruption: Avoids the need to uninstall and reinstall doors, which can be time-consuming and disruptive. Entry doors are expensive and the first thing anyone sees, making their appearance crucial. Replacing them is complicated and often unnecessary with WTS solutions.

High-end furniture

  • Savings: Touch-ups and repairs preserve expensive furniture at a fraction of the replacement cost.
  • Disruption: Minimal compared to the effort of replacing large pieces of furniture. Repairs are done in place, avoiding the hassle of moving heavy items.

Kitchen/bathroom hardware

  • Savings: Repairing fixtures is much cheaper than buying and installing new ones.
  • Disruption: Avoids the mess and downtime associated with replacements. Replacing a sink or bathtub is a large undertaking, while small cracks or dents can be easily repaired without major disruption.

Window frames/mullions

  • Savings: Repairs are significantly cheaper than replacements.
  • Disruption: Prevents the need to cover entire areas and deal with paint odors and particles from replacements. Re-coating window frames requires extensive preparation, whereas repairs are straightforward and clean.

WTS’s focus on repairs instead of replacements offers substantial financial, time-saving, and environmental benefits. By reducing costs, shortening repair times, and minimizing disruptions, WTS provides a superior solution for maintaining and enhancing the value of various household items and fixtures.
