What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Advice

Worktop repair in Carr Bank, done in place

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. We regularly repair laminate, granite & marble and quartz, and people most frequently call us about chipped corners and gouges in the surface.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Carr Bank get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

10 questions to ask before booking

Landlord and trade work in Carr Bank

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business

Your questions about worktop repair in Carr Bank

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
