Worktop repair for Flore homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why Flore customers choose us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Flore is one of 364 towns and villages in Northamptonshire where we work. We work right across the region, from Flore to Birmingham (about 39 miles away).

All of NN7 is covered, from the main roads to the quietest streets. You will find streets such as High Street, Sutton Street and The Green, all of which we cover. Nearby, we also work in Stowehill (1 mile south), Weedon Bec (1 mile west), Upper Heyford (1 mile east), Nether Heyford (1 mile south-east) and Church Stowe (2 miles south). Further out, we also cover Northampton (7 miles east), Daventry (5 miles north-west), Brackley (14 miles south), Towcester (8 miles south), Stony Stratford (15 miles south-east) and Moulton (10 miles east).

Looking after it afterwards

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.

Landlord and trade work in Flore

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northamptonshire 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, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What we are called out for in Flore

Around the sink, water gets into joints on laminate and wood, which can cause swelling.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Burns from hot pans
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • A chipped edge
  • Dents and gouges

What your quote should include

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Flore

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Flore.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Flore. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill the damage with a suitable filler and build up any lost edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
