Illogan Highway: your questions answered

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Do you come to Illogan Highway?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Illogan Highway. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • Laminate swollen by water from underneath
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Severe heat marks in quartz

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Signs you need worktop repair in Illogan Highway

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that’s where cracks often begin.

Customers generally contact us about:

  • Chipped corners
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Scorch marks from pans
  • A dent from a dropped pan

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Illogan Highway as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in Illogan Highway

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, repair is generally far better value. Our worktop repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Illogan Highway. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Looking after it afterwards

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Keep joints and edges dry

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.

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