Donnington questions

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you cover the whole of Oxfordshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Donnington included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

10 questions to ask before you book

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. An early repair prevents it.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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 often be sanded and refinished.

What a repair can’t fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Failed support under the worktop

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

Surfaces we repair
