Worktop repair in Macmerry

Common questions in Macmerry

Can you quote from pictures?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Macmerry included. There is no extra charge for travel.

What does worktop repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you work in Macmerry?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Macmerry from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you match granite flecks?

Yes. We recreate the pattern by hand so it blends in.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Worktop repair in Macmerry, done in place

A worktop repair is carried out in your kitchen, with the rest of the kitchen protected. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can use the worktop again shortly afterwards. Whether it’s damage to a stone worktop and knife marks, we can normally put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

For landlords and businesses

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Use a chopping board
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Keep joints and edges dry

Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe spills right away, and keep wooden tops oiled.

Daily use can make burns and chips worse. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.

What affects the price in Macmerry

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole worktop, we can price the job without visiting.

Repairs by material

Laminate

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

What we cannot put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A cracked stone top that is unsupported
  • Laminate that has blown or swollen
  • A top that moves on its units

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we work on in Macmerry

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

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We protect the rest of the kitchen.
  2. The damage is cleaned and any loose material removed.
  3. It’s filled and levelled with the surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed and polished to match.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

What we’re called out for in Macmerry

Most worktop damage takes a second: a hot pan set straight down, or a heavy pan catching the edge. Scratches build up more slowly, from knives and grit.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Scratches and knife marks
  • A chipped quartz edge
  • Burns from hot pans
  • Damage from fitting or building work
