  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Scratches and knife marks

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished to the worktop’s finish.

Solid surface

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

Repair or replace in Gilson?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Common questions in Gilson

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you cover Gilson?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Gilson. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Keeping it looking good

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Chopping boards prevent scratches
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Gilson. The price comes down to:

  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Most customers in Gilson get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
