Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise 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 price

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Worktop repair in Abinger Common without replacing anything

Different worktops need different repairs: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. We always aim for a repair that blends in. We’re frequently asked to fix damage around the sink cut-out and gouges in the surface, across solid surface (such as Corian), laminate and solid wood.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in Abinger Common

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

When can you do it?

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

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Abinger Common is covered. Prices do not change with location.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work in Abinger Common?

We do. We send a technician to Abinger Common for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Common problems we fix in Abinger Common

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, and that can make them swell.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Dents and gouges
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips on edges and corners

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Use a chopping board
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace in Abinger Common?

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. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
