Worktop repair in Kingsbridge

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours, depending on the damage. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. We fill with a filler suited to the material and rebuild any missing edge.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The surface is sealed or finished to suit the worktop.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Kingsbridge: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How to care for the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Always use a trivet for hot pans
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

Leave the repaired area free of hot or heavy items until it has cured. After that, trivets and chopping boards protect it best.

Do not leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kingsbridge use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

What we are called out for in Kingsbridge

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

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A damaged sink edge
  • Chips on edges and corners
  • Knife marks
  • Scorch marks from pans

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether they match the colour on site

How to compare quotes

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Quartz

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

Repairing versus replacing in Kingsbridge

Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

What you get with us

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
