Prices and what affects them

- Where the damage is and how we get to it

Questions from Burbage
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you come to Burbage?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Burbage. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Re-oil timber worktops
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
Different materials, different repairs
Granite and stone
Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Other services in Burbage
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
