About our worktop repair in Coalville

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Failed support under the worktop

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Coalville

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • Fixed prices from your photos

How to look after the repair

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

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

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

Coalville: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire worktop and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Coalville is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do you work in Coalville?

We do. We send a technician to Coalville for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Leicestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

When to call us in Coalville

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, so cracks and chips frequently start there.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Burns from hot pans

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What preparation is included
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
