Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you come to Ilkley?

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

What your worktop is made of matters

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Ilkley

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace in Ilkley?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
