What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz

What affects the price in Allandale

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Allandale. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your FK4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. We fill and polish chipped edges to match the sheen.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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.

Common questions in Allandale

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we are working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
