Elmbridge questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What areas do you cover?

All of Worcestershire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair a burn in a worktop?

Generally. A photo lets us check what’s possible.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Landlord and trade work in Elmbridge

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

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Elmbridge

Most chips are on edges and corners, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • A damaged sink edge
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

How to look after the repair

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

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Elmbridge. The price comes down to:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Elmbridge, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
