How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Don’t knock pans against the edge

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills right away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Your questions about worktop repair in Carleton St Peter

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Carleton St Peter?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your NR14 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need 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.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

  • Gouges in the surface
  • Chips caused during installation

Questions to ask before booking

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Landlord and trade work in Carleton St Peter

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Repair or replace in Carleton St Peter?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Prices start from £95. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
