  • Cuts and scratches in the surface

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Elmers End

For anyone letting property in or around Elmers End, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

FAQs for Elmers End

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes, frequently. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Use a chopping board
  • Wipe up spills quickly

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.

Different materials, different repairs

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Laminate

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

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
