Common questions in Belhaven

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Belhaven?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you work in Belhaven?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Belhaven. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the entire of East Lothian?

Everywhere in the UK, Belhaven included. Travel is included in the price.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  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. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What affects the price in Belhaven

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it

Most clients in Belhaven get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Belhaven use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairs by material

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

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