Trusted worktop repair in Hollesley

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Worktop repair in Hollesley without replacing anything

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, particularly where several lengths join. A repair leaves the kitchen untouched. If you are dealing with knife marks and a chipped quartz edge, we can normally put it right.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hollesley

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Hollesley, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Repairing versus replacing in Hollesley

If the worktop is swollen by water or badly damaged along its length, replacement may be the answer. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is normally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What your worktop is made of matters

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 scratches and burns can often be sanded out and refinished.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We assess the damage and the worktop material.
  2. The area is cleaned and the edges of the damage prepared.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal or finish the area to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

Hollesley: your questions answered

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth 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 if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

In most cases. A picture lets us check.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Suffolk.
