Advice
Common problems we fix in Great Chilton
Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that’s where cracks often begin.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Knife marks
- Burns from hot pans
- Chips near the sink
- Chips caused during installation
Before booking anyone
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How the room is protected while they work
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Never put hot pans down directly
- Keep wood oiled
- Use a chopping board
- Do not let water sit on joints
Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.
Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
Questions from Great Chilton
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A top that moves on its units
- A cracked stone top that is unsupported
- Water-swollen laminate
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Solid wood
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Quartz
Why repair rather than replace?
A new worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and refitting the sink and hob, and it may not match the rest of the kitchen. A repair leaves the worktop in place. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
