  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Scorch marks from pans

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Howdendyke. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is typically far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

  • A fixed quote before booking

What we do, step by step

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 any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Advice

How to look after the repair

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Steer clear of strong cleaners
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Clean spills immediately

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

A burn or chip can get worse with daily use, especially near the sink. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What we can’t put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Howdendyke

FAQs for Howdendyke

Do I need to empty the worktop?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

How much does worktop repair cost in Howdendyke?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

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

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Are there extra charges for Howdendyke?

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

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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