When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairs by material

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Why repair rather than replace?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

10 questions to ask before you book

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

Your questions about worktop repair in Barton

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you work in Barton?

We do. We send a technician to Barton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Typically. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Barton. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Access to the area

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
