What affects the price in Castleton
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Castleton, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Common questions in Castleton
Do you cover the entire of Rochdale?
All of Rochdale, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes, frequently. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand so it blends in.
Do you come to Castleton?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Castleton for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to empty the worktop?
Only around the repair. You can generally still use the rest of the kitchen.
How much does worktop repair cost in Castleton?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OL11 postcode.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Re-oil timber worktops
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.
Edge chips can get bigger, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Different materials, different repairs
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.
Quartz
Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Granite & marble
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
