Your questions about worktop repair in Forton

Can landlords book you?

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

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Forton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry

How to get a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

Do you need worktop repair in Forton?

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, so cracks and chips often start there.

Look out for these signs:

  • Scorch marks from pans
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A dent from a dropped pan
  • A chipped quartz edge

What your quote should include

  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Keep joints and edges dry

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

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Why repair rather than replace?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our pricing.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

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

Surfaces we repair

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