Kessingland: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you cover Kessingland?

We do. Technicians travel to Kessingland from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

How much do I need to move?

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

Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?

All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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 reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can often be sanded and refinished.

Granite and stone

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

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Kessingland. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Kessingland

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, and that can make them swell.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • A chipped edge
  • Dents and gouges
  • Burns from hot pans

Before you book anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Dry around the sink and joints

Keep joints and the sink edge dry, particularly with laminate and timber.

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

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

For anyone letting property in or around Kessingland, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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