How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain 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. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to compare quotes

Frome Vauchurch: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Frome Vauchurch. The price reflects:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DT2 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Frome Vauchurch

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate worktops have a printed decorative layer over a board core. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated by hand.

Granite and stone

Granite and stone chip at edges and cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What we cannot put right

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

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

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