When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

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

What we work on

  • Solid wood

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Questions from East Hampnett

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Can landlords book you?

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

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of West Sussex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Normally, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

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

When to call us in East Hampnett

Kitchen worktops have a hard life. Hot pans leave burns, knives leave scratches, and heavy pans chip the edges.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Choosing a repair company

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, depending on the damage, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep wood oiled

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills immediately, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

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