What we do, step by step

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Kettleshulme questions

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

How do I get a price for worktop repair in Kettleshulme?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, so the repair blends into the surface.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We match the colour and polish the repair.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

What worktop repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Kettleshulme. The price reflects:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Why repair rather than replace?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kettleshulme

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

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

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

Solid surface

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

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 does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
