Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Fordingbridge. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you’re in Fordingbridge and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Our hiring checklist

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Landlord and trade work in Fordingbridge

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Never put hot pans down directly

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

Your questions about worktop repair in Fordingbridge

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is my repair covered?

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

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What areas do you cover?

All of Hampshire, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Repairing versus replacing in Fordingbridge

Replacing even one length of worktop means templating, cutting, fitting and often a new sink and hob connection. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
