DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Leicester Forest West

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How to look after the repair

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep wood oiled
  • Don’t leave spills to soak in
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Do not let water sit on joints

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Edge chips can get bigger, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.

Your questions about worktop repair in Leicester Forest West

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Can a quartz edge be fixed?

Yes. We repair quartz chips regularly, matched and polished.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

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

Is it messy?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Will the repair match a patterned worktop?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand.

Repairs by material

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. We fill and polish the repair to match the stone.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. Chips are filled with tinted resin and polished.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
  • Severe heat marks in quartz
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Leicester Forest West

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

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The area around the damage is protected.
  2. We clean the damage and remove anything loose.
  3. We fill it and level it with the worktop.
  4. The colour and pattern are built up by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How we price worktop repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Should you replace it?

Stone and quartz tops are templated and cut to fit, so replacing a section takes time and money. A repair takes a few hours. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
