Repairing versus replacing in Dawesgreen

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and frequently a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Quotes from your pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Laminate

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

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on the damage, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

Common questions in Dawesgreen

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Do you cover Dawesgreen?

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

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. You can typically still use the rest of the kitchen.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Generally. Send us a photo and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Clean spills straight away
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Signs you need worktop repair in Dawesgreen

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips near the sink
  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

What to look for in a quote

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
