DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How we handle worktop repair in Butlocks Heath

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most repairs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Common call-outs are for a damaged sink edge and damage to a stone worktop, in granite & marble, solid wood and solid surface (such as Corian).

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

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

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Butlocks Heath as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repair or replace in Butlocks Heath?

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Butlocks Heath. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you charge for travel?

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

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

What affects the price in Butlocks Heath

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Butlocks Heath. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

How to care for the repair

Aftercare is simple:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.
