DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 normally the cheaper route.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best for years:

  • Dry around the sink and joints
  • Clean spills right away
  • Keep wood oiled
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Different materials, different repairs

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

FAQs for Hetton

Is repairing better 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.

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

How much does worktop repair cost in Hetton?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes, often. The repair is colour-matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you come to Hetton?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hetton and the rest of North Yorkshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

In most cases. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

How we price worktop repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hetton. What changes the price is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
