Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Keep wood oiled

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Our technicians work on solid wood, quartz and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are damage from fitting or building work and scratches and knife marks.

What affects the price in Exton

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Details of any past repairs

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Exton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairs by material

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Exton questions

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

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

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we’re working on. The rest is covered and protected.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you quote from pictures?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
