How to look after the repair

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

  • Use a chopping board
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

Your questions about worktop repair in Bassingham

Will you leave a mess?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bassingham as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

When to call us in Bassingham

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Look out for these signs:

  • A chipped edge
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • A heat mark or burn

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Bassingham. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

If you’re in Bassingham and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs
