Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

How to look after the repair

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a few hours, depending on the damage. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Albourne: your questions answered

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you come to Albourne?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Albourne and the rest of West Sussex. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Albourne.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Albourne

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairing versus replacing in Albourne

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
