The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, including clearing up.

  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. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Landlord and trade work in Follifoot

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Follifoot as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Common questions in Follifoot

Can you price it without visiting?

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

How much do I need to move?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

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

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

Does someone need to be in?

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

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Follifoot included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your HG3 postcode.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Aftercare tips

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

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

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Repair or replace in Follifoot?

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One visit for most repairs

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Follifoot

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What affects the price in Follifoot

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
