Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

Common problems we fix in Heatherycleugh

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

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing one section is a big job. Repairing it is a few hours’ work. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Heatherycleugh. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Take a look at our full price list.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Discolouration deep in quartz

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Heatherycleugh. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
