Common questions in Broyle Side

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Generally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Broyle Side. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  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. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

When to call us in Broyle Side

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

People generally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips near the sink
  • A heat mark or burn

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

Aftercare tips

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

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Use a chopping board

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
