Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

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 is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Covingham questions

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Covingham. Prices do not change with location.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How do I book?

How much does worktop repair cost in Covingham?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Covingham

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
