Questions from Baretrees

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Frequently, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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.

Repair or replace in Baretrees?

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. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Baretrees

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

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use a chopping board
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice

What affects the price in Baretrees

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Baretrees. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Landlord and trade work in Baretrees

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
