Common questions in Hendra

Will the price change on the day?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Are there extra charges for Hendra?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

  • Gouges in the surface

How to look after the repair

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Keep wood oiled

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Hendra, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repairs by material

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
