Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Re-oil timber worktops

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

When to call us in Glynde

Most chips are on edges and corners, usually from pans, tins or dishes knocked against them.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Chipped corners
  • Damage from fitting or building work

  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Should you replace it?

A new worktop means taking out the damaged top, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. Repairing the damage leaves the worktop in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Glynde

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

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.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work 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 assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

FAQs for Glynde

Will the price change on the day?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can landlords book you?

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

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Normally, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

What your worktop is made of matters

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
