Landlords, agents and businesses in Ilsington

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen

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

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Quartz

Quartz is tough, though edges can chip. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours, depending on the damage. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your TQ13 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a worktop means taking out the damaged top, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ilsington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Ilsington clients choose us

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Keep a trivet by the hob

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
