Repair or replace in Crawcrook?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. 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.

Why Crawcrook clients choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Read our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What affects the price in Crawcrook

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

  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Crawcrook, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Crawcrook as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. We fill and polish chipped edges.

Solid surface

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

What a repair cannot fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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