Questions from Friendly

Do you work in Friendly?

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Calderdale. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do the materials smell?

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Friendly?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How much do I need to move?

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

What happens on the day

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Open a window if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz have to be templated and cut, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What worktop repair costs

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

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Looking after it afterwards

To keep it looking its best:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Clean spills right away
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
