Choosing a repair company

Worktop repair at your home in Leckwith

You don’t need a new worktop because of one mark. We fill and refinish the damage to blend into the surface around it. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), quartz and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are a damaged sink edge and damage to a stone worktop.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the whole worktop
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Details of any past repairs

For a price in Leckwith, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Leckwith questions

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you come to Leckwith?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Leckwith. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Leckwith. Prices don’t change with location.

Is a burnt worktop repairable?

Often, yes. We remove the damaged surface, fill it and recreate the pattern.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Leckwith

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Leckwith as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

When we would advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Discolouration deep in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Leckwith

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

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 to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
