Worktop repair for Caol homes

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Worktop repair in Caol without replacing anything

Laminate, quartz, granite, solid surface and wooden worktops can all be repaired, with colour and pattern matched by hand. The worktop stays in place. Common call-outs are for burns from hot pans and dents and gouges, on laminate, granite & marble and solid surface (such as Corian).

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Caol: your questions answered

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do you come to Caol?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Caol for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What affects the price in Caol

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repairs by material

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Caol, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Signs you need worktop repair in Caol

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Dents and gouges
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Knife marks

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
