Lower Haysden: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you match granite flecks?

We match colour, flecks and veining by hand, for a repair that blends in.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

How do I book?

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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. We seal and polish it to the right sheen.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Haysden

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Water-swollen laminate
  • Cracks right through stone that has moved

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

Materials we repair

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

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Clean spills immediately
  • Do not knock pans against the edge

Let the repair cure for the time we give you before putting anything heavy or hot on it. After that, trivets and chopping boards are your best protection.

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

Common problems we fix in Lower Haysden

Cut-outs for the sink and hob are the weakest parts, and that’s where cracks often begin.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • A heat mark or burn
  • Knife marks
  • Damage from fitting or building work
  • A chipped edge

What your quote should include

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who turns up on the day

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a worktop means removing the old one, cutting and fitting a new one and reconnecting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. Repairing the damage keeps your existing worktop. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

Different materials, different repairs

Laminate

Laminate is a printed surface bonded to a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Granite and stone

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