Worktop repair for Lumley homes

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A worktop that has moved because its support has failed

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Lumley

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

Worktop repair in Lumley, done in place

We repair worktops in place, with the area around the damage covered. Most repairs take a few hours, and the worktop can be used again soon after. Common call-outs are for chips on edges and corners and burns from hot pans, in quartz, solid surface (such as Corian) and solid wood.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it.

What your worktop is made of matters

Laminate

A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. We fill damage and paint in the pattern by hand.

Solid surface

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

Should you replace it?

Swollen or badly damaged laminate may need replacing. For chips, burns and scratches, a repair is the better value. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lumley

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Keeping it looking good

To keep it looking its best:

  • Wipe up spills quickly
  • Take care with heavy pans near edges
  • Keep a trivet by the hob
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Always use a trivet and chopping board, wipe spills straight away, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.

Do not leave damage by the sink, because water gets in and swells the board.

Your questions about worktop repair in Lumley

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole worktop and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can a scorch mark be fixed?

Usually, yes. The burn is cut back, filled and patterned to match.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Lumley included. Travel is included in the price.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the worktop, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
