Common questions in Elvaston

Are there extra charges for Elvaston?

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Will the price change on the day?

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What does worktop repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DE72 postcode.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Chipped corners
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A damaged sink edge

What your quote should include

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How your room will be protected

Choosing a repair company

What we can’t put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported
  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour-matched on site

Take a look at our prices page.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Elvaston. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Elvaston, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Elvaston as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Different materials, different repairs

Granite and stone

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

Quartz

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