The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Related advice

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.

Quartz

Quartz is crushed stone bound with resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

What worktop repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Questions from Idridgehay

Can you match the pattern on my worktop?

Colour, flecks and veins are recreated by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Idridgehay.

Are there extra charges for Idridgehay?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Usually, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do I need to empty the worktop?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Water-swollen laminate

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Laminate
  • Solid surface (such as Corian)
  • Granite & marble
  • Solid wood
  • Quartz

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we’re called out for in Idridgehay

Edges and corners chip most often, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips caused during installation
  • A chipped edge
  • Knife marks
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Comparing quotes

  • When it can be used again
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
