Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Your questions about worktop repair in Blyth

Can landlords book you?

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

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. A picture lets us check what’s possible.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Are you accredited?

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

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Blyth. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Blyth. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the entire worktop

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Blyth as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Honest limits

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Granite and stone

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

What we are called out for in Blyth

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • A heat mark or burn
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • Chipped corners
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Questions to ask before you book

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
