What happens on the day

We turn 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. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Holmbush: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you cover the entire of Cornwall?

Across the UK, and that includes Holmbush. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you repair quartz?

Yes. Chips on edges and around the sink are very common repairs, filled and polished to match.

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

What we’re called out for in Holmbush

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

The things clients typically mention when they call include:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Holmbush

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Clean spills right away
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

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