What affects the price in Manaccan

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Manaccan. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Failed support under the worktop
  • Through cracks in stone that is moving
  • Deep heat discolouration in quartz, which may not fully disappear

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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 usually cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new worktop means removing the old one, templating and fitting a replacement and refitting the sink and hob, and matching the rest of the kitchen can be hard. A repair keeps your existing worktop. Our worktop repair starts from £95. 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
  2. We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
  3. A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal or finish the surface to suit the worktop.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Repairs by material

Wood

Wooden worktops can be sanded, filled and re-oiled, with burns and dents put right.

Quartz

Quartz is hard, but its edges are brittle. We fill chips with a tinted resin and polish them to the worktop’s finish.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Never put hot pans down directly
  • Avoid harsh chemicals on stone and quartz
  • Oil wooden tops regularly
  • Do not cut directly on the worktop

Hot pans should always go on a trivet. Even stone and quartz can be marked by heat.

Damage near the sink is worth repairing quickly, as water can get in and cause swelling.

Common questions in Manaccan

Do I need to clear the kitchen?

Just clear the area around the damage. The rest is covered and protected.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

What do you need from me?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
