What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Landlords, agents and businesses in Crookes

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

What affects the price in Crookes

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Crookes. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

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

There’s 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.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

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

Materials we work on in Crookes

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Keeping it looking good

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz

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

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

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.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Questions from Crookes

What do you need from me?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
