What affects the price in Common Moor

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Common Moor. What changes the price is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

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 usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

FAQs for Common Moor

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Common Moor?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your PL14 postcode.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you match granite flecks?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you quote from photos?

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

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, 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 to match the sheen.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

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

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

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

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
