10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Barmby on the Marsh questions

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover Barmby on the Marsh?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Barmby on the Marsh and the rest of East Riding of Yorkshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How to care for the repair

To keep it looking its best:

  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Why repair rather than replace?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Barmby on the Marsh. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Materials we work on in Barmby on the Marsh

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
