Common questions in Ackers Crossing

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How much does worktop repair cost in Ackers Crossing?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you cover the whole of Cheshire East?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Worktop repair in Ackers Crossing without replacing anything

Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, matching the colour and pattern by hand. Nothing is taken out. If you’re dealing with a heat mark or burn and a chipped quartz edge, we can usually put it right, on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and laminate alike.

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

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
