What we are called out for in Bugle

The worst damage often 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 any of the following:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Dents and gouges
  • A heat mark or burn

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Choosing a repair company

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Aftercare tips

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Your questions about worktop repair in Bugle

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is my repair covered?

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

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Usually. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.

Do you come to Bugle?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Bugle from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Bugle

What affects the price in Bugle

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Bugle. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

How to get a fixed quote

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. 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.
