Our hiring checklist

How to look after the repair

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

  • Don’t knock pans against the edge
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Clean spills straight away

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What affects the price in Embleton

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Embleton. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Embleton questions

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, matched and polished.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

When we would advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
