Leytonstone questions

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes, the pattern is built up by hand.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

How to look after the repair

A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:

  • Do not leave spills to soak in
  • Watch the edges with heavy pans
  • Do not let water sit on joints
  • Don’t cut directly on the worktop

Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. Repairing it sooner keeps the job smaller.

What your worktop is made of matters

Quartz

Quartz worktops are mostly stone set in resin. Edge chips are very common, and we fill and polish them to match the sheen.

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, and burns and dents repaired.

For landlords and businesses

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Leytonstone

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Leytonstone. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • One picture of the whole worktop
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

  2. Burnt or loose material is cut back.
  3. We fill and shape the damaged area.
  4. We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
  5. It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
