Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Landlord and trade work in Burlow

If you manage property in Burlow, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

When we’d advise against a repair

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

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

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

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Burlow. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

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

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

Should you replace it?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Our worktop repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

FAQs for Burlow

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
