Questions from Five Ash Down

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover Five Ash Down?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Five Ash Down from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your TN22 postcode.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

When to call us in Five Ash Down

The worst damage frequently happens in a moment: a hot pan put down without a trivet, or a heavy pan knocked against the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Damage around the sink cut-out
  • Knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans

Before you book anyone

  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair is a few hours with everything left in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours, depending on the damage. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A top that moves on its units

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Five Ash Down

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

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire worktop
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Five Ash Down as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Five Ash Down, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
