Book worktop repair in Hillhead

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by checking the damage and the worktop material.
  2. Next we clean up and prepare the damaged area.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. The colour and pattern are matched by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole worktop, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Hillhead

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one 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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

Questions from Hillhead

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Only around the repair. The rest of the kitchen stays usable.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you come to Hillhead?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Hillhead. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
