What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Aftercare tips

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Repairing versus replacing in Bentley

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why Bentley clients choose us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Read our prices page.

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bentley as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Common problems we fix in Bentley

Edges and corners chip most frequently, normally from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Knife marks
  • A heat mark or burn
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Chipped corners

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work

Our hiring checklist

Common questions in Bentley

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

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.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole worktop

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
