Cranbrook: your questions answered

How much does worktop repair cost in Cranbrook?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you come to Cranbrook?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Cranbrook. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

When to call us in Cranbrook

Most chips are on edges and corners, typically from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

The things clients typically mention when they call include:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chipped corners
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Damage around the sink cut-out

Before you book anyone

  • Who will actually do the work
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Cranbrook

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to care for the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Use a chopping board

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

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

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
