DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
- Failed support under the worktop
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Use a chopping board
- Keep wood oiled
Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.
A chip on an edge can grow, and on laminate, water can get into the core. Repairing it early stops that.
Questions from Freston
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can a quartz edge be fixed?
Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How we price worktop repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
