What affects the price in Lower Raydon
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire worktop
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job.
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Solid surface
Solid surface tops are the same material all the way through, so marks can frequently be sanded and refinished.
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Severe heat marks in quartz
- A top that moves on its units
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Laminate
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
- Granite & marble
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Watch the edges with heavy pans
- Keep wood oiled
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
Keep joints and the sink edge dry, especially on laminate and wood.
Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 in Lower Raydon?
Even a single new length of worktop means templating, cutting and refitting the sink and hob. A repair takes a few hours and leaves everything in place. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
