When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

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 usually cheaper.

For landlords and businesses

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.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cookshill use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Solid surface

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