Worktop repair in Lumley Thicks, Sunderland
Worktop repair for Lumley Thicks, without a refit. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, then book a visit.
- Repairs from £95
- Burns from hot pans
- Chips caused during installation
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
- Wipe up spills quickly
- Keep a trivet by the hob
- Do not knock pans against the edge
Never put hot pans straight onto the worktop. Heat can mark quartz and stone as well.
Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, because water gets in and swells the board.

Questions from Lumley Thicks
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover Lumley Thicks?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Lumley Thicks. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can you match granite flecks?
Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.
