What else we do in Arrunden
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Don’t let water sit on joints
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Questions from Arrunden
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Arrunden. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I need to clear the kitchen?
Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Repairing versus replacing in Arrunden
Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire worktop
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Landlord and trade work in Arrunden
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Arrunden use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.
Granite and stone
Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.
