What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  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. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Questions from Darliston

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you come to Darliston?

We do. We send a technician to Darliston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Repairing versus replacing in Darliston

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. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Darliston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

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.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Darliston. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Details of any past repairs

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

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

Materials we work on in Darliston

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

What we are called out for in Darliston

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks frequently begin.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A damaged sink edge
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chips caused during installation

Comparing quotes

  • Who turns up on the day
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
