About our worktop repair in Doulting

Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. If you are dealing with chipped corners and knife marks, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Doulting as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

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

What we work on

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

FAQs for Doulting

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Doulting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will 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 you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Doulting. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace in Doulting?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Knife marks

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
