Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • A top that moves on its units

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Laminate
  • Quartz
  • Solid wood
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Use a chopping board

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use particularly around the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What affects the price in Greystoke

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Greystoke. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For a price in Greystoke, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. Chips and burns are filled and the pattern recreated.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Greystoke questions

Do you work in Greystoke?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Greystoke for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

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

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How the visit works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
