Common questions in Christon Bank

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Christon Bank.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

What we can’t put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

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

Materials we work on in Christon Bank

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

Should you replace it?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Read our pricing.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Clean spills immediately

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What affects the price in Christon Bank

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Christon Bank. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

When to call us in Christon Bank

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Burns from hot pans

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Christon Bank use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
