FAQs for Kingston

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Normally. Send us a picture and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you work in Kingston?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Kingston. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the entire of Dorset?

We cover the whole UK, including Kingston and the rest of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is it messy?

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

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Looking after it afterwards

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Oil wooden tops regularly

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

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Different materials, different repairs

Solid surface

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

Laminate

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

Landlord and trade work in Kingston

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For anyone letting property in or around Kingston, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. We finish it to match the sheen and leave it to cure.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
