FAQs for Lobley Hill

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How much do I need to move?

Only the area we are working on. We protect the rest of the kitchen.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you come to Lobley Hill?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Lobley Hill. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Worktop repair in Lobley Hill without replacing anything

A new worktop rarely matches the old one, especially in an L-shaped or long kitchen. Repairing the damage keeps your kitchen as it is. We work on solid surface (such as Corian), solid wood and granite & marble, and the jobs we see most are chips on edges and corners and a dent from a dropped pan.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Do you need worktop repair in Lobley Hill?

Sink and hob cut-outs are weak points, and that’s where cracks often begin.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Snagging damage in a new kitchen
  • A chipped edge
  • Dents and gouges

What to look for in a quote

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long it needs to cure
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Use a chopping board
  • Keep joints and edges dry
  • Do not leave spills to soak in

Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, particularly with laminate and timber.

Don’t leave damage by the sink, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Solid surface

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

Granite and stone

Natural stone worktops chip at edges and around cut-outs. The repair is filled and polished to the stone’s finish.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A cracked stone top that’s unsupported

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

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Lobley Hill

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

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.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire worktop, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

Repair or replace: which is better?

An identical replacement may look different next to aged worktops. We match the repair to your worktop as it is today. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
