The process

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, depending on the damage, tidy-up included.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  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

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Advice

How to care for the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

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

Daily use can make burns and chips worse, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Great Alne

  • Laminate

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Alne

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why repair rather than replace?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Great Alne get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

Great Alne: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you quote from photos?

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