Questions from Barcombe Mills

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you come to Barcombe Mills?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Barcombe Mills from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

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

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Use a chopping board

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

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

What affects the price in Barcombe Mills

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Barcombe Mills. The price comes down to:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
