Need worktop repair in Friday Street?

Should you replace it?

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. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Our hiring checklist

Questions from Friday Street

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes, often. We match the colour and polish the repair.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What areas do you cover?

All of Surrey, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How much do I need to move?

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

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Friday Street, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

What we work on

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

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire worktop
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

How to care for the repair

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Do not knock pans against the edge
  • Clean spills straight away
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. An early repair prevents it.
