When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repairing versus replacing in Buxted

A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Buxted. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • A fixed quote before booking

Do you need worktop repair in Buxted?

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped edge
  • Dents and gouges
  • A damaged sink edge

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Your questions about worktop repair in Buxted

Are there extra charges for Buxted?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 generally the cheaper route.
