DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 usually the cheaper route.

Worktop repair in Crawfordjohn, done in place

Worktops are expensive to replace and hard to match, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. If you are dealing with a chipped quartz edge and dents and gouges, we can help, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Crawfordjohn and across South Lanarkshire.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Crawfordjohn. The price reflects:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Crawfordjohn questions

How much do I need to move?

Just near the damage. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Do you work in Crawfordjohn?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Crawfordjohn for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One visit for most repairs

Read our prices page.

What a repair cannot fix

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

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

Materials we repair

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
