When to call us in Fair Hill

Worktops take more punishment than anything else in the kitchen. Hot pans scorch, knives leave scratches, and edges chip when heavy pans or tins hit them.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • Damage to a stone worktop
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • A heat mark or burn

How to compare quotes

The process

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fair Hill

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Aftercare tips

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Should you replace it?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is usually far better value. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Fair Hill

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

The whole UK, including all of Cumbria. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

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

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
