Repairing versus replacing in Knapton

Even if you could get the same laminate, it may not match after years of light and use. A repair is matched to what you have now. Our worktop repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Wood

Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, with burns and dents put right.

Solid surface

Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

FAQs for Knapton

Do you cover the whole of York?

All of York, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What information do you need?

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

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

What affects the price in Knapton

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Knapton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We look at the damage and the worktop’s finish.
  2. We cut back any burnt or loose material.
  3. The area is filled and shaped.
  4. The pattern, flecks or grain are recreated.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Related advice

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • A top that moves on its units
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Knapton

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

When to call us in Knapton

Water around the sink can get into laminate and wood joints, which can cause swelling.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Knife marks
  • Chips caused during installation
  • Chips in quartz or granite
  • Gouges in the surface

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • If travel is included in the price
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple:

  • Don’t let water sit on joints
  • Re-oil timber worktops
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Steer clear of strong cleaners

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

Don’t leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.
