Questions from Loyter's Green
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How do I get a price for worktop repair in Loyter's Green?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
When to call us in Loyter's Green
Edges and corners chip most often, frequently when something heavy catches the edge.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Chips near the sink
- Cuts and scratches in the surface
- Dents and gouges
- Chips on edges and corners
Before booking anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Steer clear of strong cleaners
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Clean spills right away
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.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
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.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A worktop that has moved because its support has failed
- Laminate swollen by water from underneath
- Cracks right through stone that has moved
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
